I am 48 and beginning to see some 'symptoms' of peri-menopause. Mainly heavier periods and night sweats. The night sweats dont' bother me much - not wearing pj's helps a lot. Now that I'm aware of the heavier periods, I am being more prepared. since I've been caught off gurad a bit the last feew times. I am on the pill and my doctor said stay on it, it'll help.

So here's what I'm wondering for you ladies who've been there, done that. If you have always had an easy time with menstruation and no PMS, do you think you have a tendency towards an easier time with menopause? I'm hoping that's the case.
