truebabe sorry I'm a bit out of it so may have misread what you wrote, was this a doctor at your clinic? If not I would speak to your FS first, plus I am pretty sure on the news not long ago there is a test that can predict when your menopause is likely to occur. I wouldnt accept what he said without a test, I think even without the test I am talking about there is a blood test to check hormone levels or something. My naturopath has had success with women who are premenopausel so dont take their word for granted. I have another friend who is single at the moment and her gyno has taken some lining or something to use as well. I will find out what she has had done and let you know. (((GBH's)))
