Vaginal Dryness Physical symptoms Hot Flashes Changes in Sleep Mood Changes 3.) regulate periods: black cohosh evening primrose oil ____________________________ Your best bet is to find a second opinion from a different doctor. Nobody knows their body more than you...really, your doctor should respect that, if nothing else. Another thing is to kinda keep a diary of the symptoms affecting you...you might be a lot younger than the doctor would be expecting for someone going through menopause symptoms: that doesn't mean it's impossible or unheard of! Also...there might be something else wrong. You noted that you have cysts and fibroids? these, in and of themselves, can cause a range of negative symptoms that may present themselves like menopause. Good luck!! Hang in there! I know diagnosis of things can be a long hard road :( *hugs* 1.) hormone levels can’t be used to determine if it’s menopause without doing a 12 month testing of hormones.
