1% of women get this??? What are the odds of it being me? I was having hotflashes at 25 y/o. I thought I was having BP problems and was so thankful it was winter and I would go stand outside for a few minutes for relief. lol I was diagnosed with menopause and started taking HRT at age 29 mainly for bone health. Thankfully, this works in my favor since I have NO desire for children but it sucks because I do like to ride horses so the bone health issue does worry me. So devestating? Not really.
