I couldn’t sleep anymore, I felt tired all of the time, my skin was a mess, and I had no motivation. This is it, I thought! So I did what most of us do and turned to the internet. After hours of research it began to dawn on me that what I was experiencing was the start of menopause. How could I manage this? Like most women I’d heard about HRT, but no way was I going to put chemicals into my body that could harm me.
- [Exercise and the Menopause: It's Time to Get Moving](https://www.missmenopause.co.uk/exercise-and-the-menopause-its-time-to-get-moving/) - Even if you’ve never exercised, it’s never too late to start and a great time to start is when you reach the menopause.

This is known as premature menopause, and it can have very distressing physical and psychological effects. Here's why you're never too young to learn about the menopause.
- [Why the Menopause Lasts for One Day](https://www.missmenopause.co.uk/menopause-lasts-one-day/) - Menopause means you haven’t had a period for 12 consecutive calendar months, right? So you’ve checked your calendar and decided this is you. Now you are postmenopausal; confusing or what? This means you may still have most or all of the symptoms but there is an expectation that you’re on the home run and they will reduce over time. So in fact menopause only lasts one day, however the symptoms of the menopause begin long before that! This is referred to as perimenopause.
