Could I be perimenopausal at 35 or is it something else. I’m sick all the time, flushes, bits of anxiety (never had that before), sore breasts, missed periods or really heavy and long and I’m dry. I can’t be pregnant as I’m on the implant.
I can’t think of what else it could be? I’ve recently changed jobs (working from home) and I am now looking for a second job so I can still see people.
My husband and I are going great, we have just started a new business but it’s going fine.
Can you please give me some ideas of what is going on? I can’t get into see a doctor for nearly a month. Thanks

Just go and see a Dr. even if it’s not your normal Dr.
It sounds hormonal. But that can be anything from perimenopause to the implant. Could even be a bit of both. I was getting perimenopause when I was 46. I'm 48 now and still skipping months of periods before bleeding again, with a mixture of long bleeds and normal bleeds and occasional night sweats and white chin hairs, to name a few things. What you are describing sounds like peri and it wouldn't be questioned at my age, but at 35, although uncommon, it isnt unusual.
Obviously see the Dr, but the short answer is yes, you can be peri-menopausal at 35. I was peri-m at 40, full menopause by 42 and fully post-m by 50... Everyone is different. I have friends who were having their first babies at 42...
No contraception is 100%. Take a test.
Also I had a another of these symptoms from the pill so not sure if its your body reacting to the contraception.
Go see a doctor. But yes its possible my mum was perimenopausal in her late 30s
Get off the implant ASAP
