I don't know. 😠I'm almost 50 and have been begging for a hysterectomy due to heavy periods, and keep being denied and told "you'll PROBABLY be in menopause soon". I want to get a new IUD but I wanted to wait until after a vacation I have planned in February (because it caused me to have a horrible reaction to the sun).. but that might be too late.

That sucks real bad. I can't imagine still having to deal with that at 50. Not calling you old. Just really surprised that you haven't had menopause yet. My mom got hers in the late 40s and I'm assuming mine will be similar. And all of the other ladies in their 50s I know have gone through it or are currently going through it. Your hormones must be really stubborn.
