actually it is - ever think about a name change? how about Sarah?

Very funny alaska_gurlly. What do u mean by early stages of menopause, amhpgseverino?

I think if u didn't get your period 4 a whole yr. it's not a prob.

If you still bgetting periods here and there, use BC. but being menopausal means not having a period for a whole year. If you go 12 months, you're safe.

Even if u get pregnant, u might miscarry since your eggs are getting old and moldy ;-)

If u don't want to get preg. Use soemthing, cuz u can definitely still get preg at the start of the meno.

So don't stop using BC yet. Just wait until you're sure that's it.

a woman can be in the early stages of menopause for a long, long time. everyone is right that not having a period for a full year is one of the signs of menopause, but you can still have a period or two or three after that time as well. but, i don't think the eggs are up for the job. altho, did anyone read about that woman who had a baby at 65 last year in the states? so, whose to say?

so dont stop using bc yet. i mean, who wants to start with diapers all over again when yhou're supposed to be doing the freedom act?

your not there yet so dont sweat it. by the time you get there youll really be up on what not to do. but its good that your thinkgin
