With pre-menopause and the final stages of disintegration naturally of an ovarian cyst, I can embrace menopause when it finally hits me full force. I am only 41 and mom says its a few years yet but we are seeing early signs now, thank goddess !!!!! I wonder what I was thinking, I mean really thinking, when I signed the contract with my craetor to be 'woman' . . . oh well, it is better than a nocturnal emission, I suppose sharing the light and happy new year, Miss Erica Hidvegi, the Enlightenment_Advisor, B.A. Psych/M.A. Transpersonal Studies- Cnslng/Author, Artist, Photographer, Entrepreneur & Freelance extraordinaire http://www.enlightenment-psych.net/womenshealth.htm

Menopausal symptoms vary among individuals. As menopause approaches, periods may get heavier, or lighter, and cycles shorter, or longer. A woman may miss a period or two, then begin menstruating regularly again for a time. Or, she may simply have a final period and then stop menstruating forever.
