Let me preface by saying I am 42.
Hubby and I are in the car waiting to pick up youngest from school:
Hubby: You look tired.
Me: Yeah, I'm exhausted and I have a headache. I started today.
Hubby: Well you don't have to deal with it too much longer .
Me: (hoping I misunderstood where he was going with that) What?!
Hubby: You have till what, 47 and then you don't have to deal with it?
Me: (praying I'm not overcome with a menstrual meltdown and blinded with an overwhelming urge to take him out...) It's different for everyone.
I didn't talk to him again for the rest of the night.
***ATTENTION ALL MEN******
This is never an ok conversation. I suggest you NEVER bring up the fact that your wife is approaching, going through, or will ever see menopause.

This is alot like the pregnant thing--unless one sees an actual baby protruding from a woman, one must never suggest that she looks pregnant...
Don't ask how I know...
OUCH!
I'm 53 and I still haven't gone all the way through it....the damn perimenopause has lasted since I was 45....this is really getting old...lots of soy, black cohosh, evening primrose, St. John's Wort, Kava Kava and patience. Good luck.
hahaha men are so clueless :(
LOLOLOL OMG! I wish. I am 47...still having every 28 days of hell...Evening Primrose Oil helps keep me from being a homicidal maniac.
