Wow what a day my hormones have not been to bad but todat it was a what the heck day..... I woke up in a bad mood and it just got worse throught the morning then fustration..... I am like what the heck...... then hot flasher wooo hooo ! I know TMI  so I am thinking to myself thank goodness I am the only one here besides my 2 cats and my puppy...... I know it is common the have highs and lows from hormones and thought I was ready since it has been happening for the last 7-8 months but today took me to another level , so my big question out there for anyone that is over 1 or more years out is "does it level off and become less and if yes when.....?"

Thanks in advance.

Ya know ... I have to say a couple of things here... first is yes it will level out. BUT you need to consider that you are really going through alot right now with your injury, your hubby away, etc. Also, I think i recall you are in your 40's? Maybe some pre-menapausal stuff going on....? Maybe an appt with an GYN would be in order?

As long as the weight is coming off, old hormones are being released. It should ease as weight loss slows if this is whatit is from. Consider the ideas above... I hope yo feel better very soon. You are typically very upbeat and I hate to see you struggling in this.

Hugs to you!

Thanks Patrece,

I know it has to be all the hormones being released from the weight loss but I had a full hysterectomy 17 years ago so it makes me wonder ...... I have been told that the weight loss will induce symptoms like this But wow ! I never thought or maybe wishful thinking it would get this bad, Your right I do have a lot on my plate right now .... just hoping for a bright light att the end of the tunnel as they say........... I do know it is there but I hate all this hormonal stuff...... I have always been upbeat and level headed LOL not I feel like a nut case.... I am going to talk to my GYN Dr next week I made a appt to see her but also made a appt monday with a conselor  maybe between the both Drs I can get leveled out while I am going through this hormone surge.... its funny the last time I felt like this was when I was pregnant  LOL But thankful right now that I know that is not what it is..... Very thankful !
Thanks for your suport.

Hugs, Lisa

Hot flashing with you Lisa, but mine seem to be menopausal hot flashes. I can go from feeling fine to pouring sweat from my scalp at the drop of a pin. Activity does not affect this. I can be sitting on a chair at work and needing to change tops due to the dripping. Hugs
