I have tender breasts and I feel quite sick. There is no way that I could be pregnant as my husband has had the snip. Am I Peri-menopausal?

These are common signs as you approach the menopause, so it is possible and you are in the average age range of 45-55.

Nausea can often be caused by fluctuating oestrogen so you may find Menopause Support helpful. This is traditionally used to help gently raise and balance oestrogen.

However, nausea can be caused by other factors, such as low blood sugars or dehydration, so do make sure that you are eating a good diet, with healthy snacks between meals, and drink plenty of plain water as well as your other drinks.

If this doesn't help do get it checked out by your doctor as well.

Breast tenderness is also very common and Menopause Support may help with this too. some women also find a kelp supplement helpful and as dehydration can can be a contributory factor remember the water!
