43 years old & feel totally exhausted during my Menstru. Why? What to do?.?

Question:

Answers:
Check out www.hufa.org - especially the symptoms link. Estrogen fades during MS and that allows insulin production to increase - I understand. The purpose of insulin is to open the "cell's mouths" to let food and water in. Thus, right before your period, insulin is madly tucking food and water in cells, causing bloating and weight gain.

The food insulin tucks in cells is blood glucose. If there is too much insulin (a condition known as hyperinsulinemia), it can result in there being too little blood glucose in the blood stream for the rest of the body to use during the day (a condition known as hypoglycemia). If the brain senses a low blood sugar condition, it may cause you to feel tiredness, to get you to rest/sleep - during which time sugars can balance again.

Can be the begining of "the change". I am only 37, but it took my sister almost 5 years to go through menupause. I would consult my doctor, to be that tired or burnt out could be other issues as well, especially if you are bleeding more than usual. Could possibly be an anemic issue. A lot of funky things happen to us women as we get older, I would consult your doctor. Best wishes!
