'I was left unable to stand, sit or walk.'
There are at least 62 symptoms associated with menopause ‘I had some very dark days, filled with existential dread, and experienced unexplained rage,’ remembers Helen Badcock, 41, from Taunton, who began experiencing menopause symptoms in her thirties. ‘I’d always been a sharp thinker known for being positive and self-motivated, but I felt like I could no longer stay on top of things, and I felt like a fraud. ‘I felt like I should be retiring, but I was only 36.
‘As an adenomyosis sufferer, my cycles were regular but very heavy and painful,’ she says. ‘They changed to being much lighter, and then started being a week or so early or late. It was such a drastic difference, I told my gynaecologist I no longer needed any treatment. ‘My ADHD symptoms got much worse too – I was forgetful, making stupid mistakes, demotivated and as a business owner and mother of three children, this was not compatible with my life. I didn’t know that menopause can affect ADHD.
