I noticed a couple of years ago a heat sensation in my tongue that made my whole mouth hot. I knew I should start experiencing premenopausal symptoms so I started looking for info. I did find a burning feeling in the mouth or tongue listed, but when I told the gynecologist about it she had never heard of it. It's apparently one of those things that some get and most don't. Now that I think about it, I haven't noticed it since I started taking the black cohosh for hot flashes, maybe it's connected.

yep i can now click my jaw somedays its very annoying i could never do it b4 i started on peri just like i never had any form of breast pain b4 peri

Hi ive had a full hysterectomy at 30 now only have 1 ovary after suffering from a range of perimenopasaul symptoms i went and had a blood test to check if i was in fact perimenopausal the bloods came back normal WHAT how can this be , apparently unless your hormones are going crazy at a particular time of the month it wont show up even tho u r peri so just go off your symptoms and how u feel make a record of how u feel at particular times of the month this for me is the best indicator, trusting my own body and instincts and more importantly the symptoms i get, palpatations hot sweats panic attacks crashing fatigue some days especially when i am having palpatations ,running to the loo with weak bladder al these are indicators of perimenopause hope this helps sum ladies out there ok

I had 2 periods long after I stopped having any cycles. Mine were not 2 consecutive though, as the first was about 15 months after my last period and the other was 3 months after that one. I did go check it out with my doctor, but I secretly wasn't too worried, as I was certain they were 'periods' as opposed to bleeding from some unknown cause. In both cases, about 2 weeks before the bleeding began, I got the same tell tale cervical mucus and the facial breakout that I always got when I was ovulating. So I wasn't shocked when those periods came. My doctor just felt those 'rogue' periods resulted from my ovaries deciding to do an encore presentation with 2 straggler eggs that had lingered behind. She did a Pap and said everything looked good, so I was just told to come back if I got any spotting, or if I got any more periods after another 6 months. Neither happened, and it's been 3 years, so I'm definitely done. By the way, my cycles ended at age 57, and the 2 extra periods happened at just before I turned 58! So if you're in your late 40's or early 50's, it probably happens more frequently.
