My best friend made me laugh today. Shes 49 and over the last few months her periods have just got very light and nearly stopped. She said is that going to be it then? I was looking forward to getting patches like you. And having an excuse to be stroppy. And not wearing a wooly hat in bed to keep warm. At 55 and still going through the mill I really do hope she has an easy ride ! ☺

Ohh so do I DQ.
But if she doesn't, at least she's got you to give her sympathy,and help guide her through it.
You could always recommend M&M to her as well.......😄
Here's hoping she'll sail through it......😘

I hope she keeps her sense of humour.
Only today my pharmacist had a full blown conversation with me about my hrt and what I've had taken out and bleeding whilst stood next to a new little shop assistant who looked 16 if he was a day
.
He was bright red. Shuffling and staring at his feet and visibly winced at the word uterus.
I looked at him and said "sorry about this and the pharmacist said "he's got to learn".
Poor little guy😁 TMI lol.

Bless him. To be fair though the last time I was in there a hard of hearing senior gentleman was shouting at the top of his voice about the ins and outs, quite literally, of Anusol. That kids gonna learn fast.
