I’m experiencing either an underactive thyroid or perimenopause or maybe even both. I’m 33 and don’t know if to visit my regular doctor or my gynocologist? My symptoms are: fatigue, cold hands & feet, bit of depression, muscle spasms, hair loss, drowsiness, dizziness, heart palpitations, decreased libido and lubrication, major junk food craving, extremely light periods, very bloated and acne along jawline and under chin plus the area where the thyroid is is swollen and can feel a lump there. When I drink coffee I have major hot flashes for 10 minutes to an hour where before I didn’t. So wich doc should I visit? I feel more comfy with my gyno cause she’s a woman….

Mary you are obviously advertising for this company and I’m furious that even though I have more than just one symptom that something IS wrong with me you think a lube gel is going to take away everything else I have? I HAD an awesome sex life until about 3 weeks ago so NO…I don’t need your gel! You make me sick. Go advertise somewhere else!

I'm wondering if I might be going through menopause…I'm only 31 but for the last seven months I have been having major physical issues. My mom and my grandmother didn't go through menopause until their 60's and none of my sisters have experienced any of these symptoms but I'm not sure what else it could be. My symptoms are these: hair loss, weight loss/gain (it constantly fluctuates), haven't had my period in seven months, facial hair growth (a lot of it!!), hot flashes and constant acne.

I talked to a doctor about this four months ago and he told me it was stress. But I'm not stressed, I have nothing (except this) to worry me! I'm really starting to get concerned especially because my husband and I want to start a family. Can anyone help??
