Would you recognize them as menopause if they happened to you? Most women are woefully unprepared for menopause and mistake their symptoms of menopause for a medical problem. You might be experiencing one right now that you’ve mistaken for something else. This video might be just what you need.

Why don't you have a million subs? What a wonderful service you are offering here. You are the doctor I always wished I could find! 💞
Menopause is THE most neglected topic on earth. Women are in denial about it, and nobody talks about it. That's what I'm trying to change.
There has never been anything like the education I'm providing, so women don't even know they need it. And they are not very diligent about making time for it. I am the only person on planet Earth providing an education that is understandable for lay persons. And I love every minute of it.
But, it will take time for this to catch on and become popular. (It's not like all the cosmetic channels that have millions of viewers.)
Thank you so much for recognizing the value of my work. My dream is to improve the futures of women forever.
Seriously, she should be way over a million. This is so much more important than makeup and fashion!!
Was thinking the same exact thing!
@@MenopauseTaylor , Thank You for replying to my email
I understand i must do the foot work on shopping for a Doctor.
@@emeritajimenez8521 Yes, finding the right doctor FOR YOU is actually the most difficult thing of all. If you ever have a consultation with me, I'll school you in precisely how to do so for YOUR goals.
All I can say at this point is that you pre and peri menopausal ladies listen up, you don't know how lucky you are to have this unbiased detailed information handed to you on a silver platter from Dr. Barbie! I'm post menopausal and only wished........I'm buying the book today so I can finally learn how to manage my 18 symptoms! I'll still happily and eagerly watch the videos but I'm getting on that fast train to alleviate some of my systems now! Dr. Barbie I said it once, I'll say it again, you're an angel sent from heaven......thank you so much!
You make me feel so good. Thank YOU!
So true! I knew nothing before watching Dr. Taylor. Best teacher ever!
Sitting here in a puddle of tears, drenched in sweat and craving nachos with a shot of tequila. I am 52 and have been in this crazy cycle you described for 2 years now with the last 3 months being the absolute worst. So grateful to you for doing this series. Looking forward to regaining my sanity as I watch the rest of your videos.
Oh, Isabel. I am so sorry. You never should have had a single minute of discomfort. That's what I can change for you.
Welcome aboard to "Menopause Taylor University." You'll find that if you start at the very first video (going by the number after each title), you'll understand absolutely everything. And you'll be shocked at what you didn't know, and delighted that you now do know.
Each video builds on the last. It's just like school: You had to learn the alphabet before you could read. And nowadays, there are so many overwhelming misconceptions that women mistake as facts ... that you just don't know what you don't know.
I respond to all comments here on RUclips daily. So, I will answer all your questions ... but I'll also know if you aren't watching the videos in order. (I'm like your mother. I have eyes in the back of my head!)
Menopause Taylor I am watching in order, promise. I have been tempted to jump to the “answers” however have discovered this serves me no purpose. Thank you!
I'm so proud of you, my dear. You will be so glad you watched them in order. And, as you do, you'll get hooked and want more, more, more information. You'll see that I anticipate your questions and answer them before you have to ask them. So just sit back and watch carefully.
@@MenopauseTaylor ffffff
Came to you from Dominiques channel... 👍🏼
lntgraphfx me too
Hi dear Barbie,
Thanks for giving us, all the details about menopause...I think that you are kind of angel that God sent for all women in order to have a better life, understanding what is happening inside us. Oh! by the way, you do look beautiful with all the vintage oufits you wear ...I love them!!! Greetings from Lima - Peru
Oh, Vero, you are so kind to say these things. I'm just a woman who wants the best for other women. I'm so glad these videos are helping you.
Wonderful dialogue. Thank you for this extremely valuable education, Dr. Taylor.
You're so welcome, Julie. I love doing this for you.
You talk so cheerfully and charmingly about negative things like menopause.. that I still have some hope about it :)
Thanks again Barbie. You are a breath of fresh air!
You are a ray of joyous sunshine, Marilyn. Thank you so much for all your wonderful comments. I smile when I see your name.
It is great to finally come to realize all these things about yourself! I am already feeling stronger and your support is priceless!!!! I love your knowledge, your tutorials, your great sense of humor and your willingness to share and make us feel and be better, Barbie!!!
Good! That means I'm doing my job. I can't tell you how happy it makes me to know that you're benefitting from these tutorials.
Thank you for caring enough to take your time and educate. I am so happy I just found you. I have been on a roller-coaster for 3yrs now and I'm finally getting some answers.
Stephanie, welcome!
Please give me the opportunity to give you a complete education so that you'll really understand everything. All you have to do is watch my videos in order. I promise that you;ll be so surprised at what you didn't know. I love making these tutorials, and I won't disappoint you.
I'm proud of you for investing in your future.
I feel like I’m taking a whole menopause course! I love the worksheet, the outline and the book! Thank you Dr. Barbie❤️
You are! I call this channel "Menopause University." You will definitely get a complete menopause education here if you watch all my videos in order.
At each tutorial I learn sooo much. Tutorial 11 was fantastic. you are the best teacher, and make me less self conscious about the "m" word- menopause. BTW love your fashion style.
Thank you so much, Helga. I hope i can make everyone totally comfortable with the "m" word. I mean, how can something that more than half the world population experiences be uncomfortable?
I am so happy I found you and want to thank you so much for giving us this information! Hugs - Siobahn
I think I started peri menopause in my 30's. Have checked my thyroid and it's fine. I have had basically all the symptoms. I wish people would be more open to people being individuals and going through different things at different times. Much love to you for spreading information! 💜
You may very well have started in your 30s. Some women are in peri-menopause for 10 years. The key us to know what's happening, know what the future holds, and know all your options. I'm here to help you.
Dear Dr. Taylor, I hope you realize what a great service you are offering to us with these series . Very grateful for that. Thank you.
Oh, thank you so much, Taraneh. I do know that I'm saving lives. And I do know that, if all women got this education, it would improve the futures of all women forever. I love every minute of this, and I will continue to do all I can to help women have happily ever afters.
@@MenopauseTaylor 👍💕
I'm so glad i found your videos. Thank you so much for them. Loving it.
Perfect! That's my goal.
Came to you from Dominque's channel-thank you!!
Welcome aboard, Kristine! I'm here to educate you on everything you need to know for menopause and beyond. If you watch these videos in order, I promise you'll understand everything ... and have fun all the while.
I'll answer any questions you pose in these comments.
Thank you for this video, I can not wait for the next one.
It's coming ... on Tuesday. Every Tuuesday.
Thank you so much for taking the time for these videos . I have learn more about myself . I liked so much I had to call my cousins so they too can learn.
Good for you. And your cousins will thank you, too.
Hello Barbie! I’m so thankful to Dominique and Angie for taking me to you!! You are making my days since I started to watch your videos in order! I realize I knew nothing about menopause, and with your guide I’m discovering a different world that most probably I did not approach before due to my fears. I’m 62 on my way to 63 and I’m determined to follow you throughout all your videos. I live in Uruguay, South America and I truly think you could help to inspire and educate the women on this part of the world. Thanks again for your educational videos made with so much love and fun that boost the best in each of us.
I am so glad you're here, my dear Sandra.
If you ever want me to tailor everything specifically to YOU, just schedule a consultation with me at MenopauseTaylor.ME. I do them all via video conferencing, so it doesn't matter where you live.
@@MenopauseTaylor For sure, I will in the near future! I’m trying to learn and get information from your videos so that when I set an appointment with my doctors here I will be able to ask them to prescribe all the necessary tests. Then, with all my tests results I will be ready to schedule a consultation with you having all the information and making the best out of it!! Again, many many thanks for all that you give!!
@@MADUIXOTS Sandra,
You are going about it backwards. Have your consultation with me FIRST. I will school you in precisely how to have the conversation with your doctors. Otherwise, you'll burn bridges before you meet with me. Please believe me on this. None of this is as straightforward as it should be.
After viewing this video, I am now subbed... Looking forward to the other ones... Thank you for creating this channel and addressing this subject. Your expertise in this area and sharing the knowledge with us is a gift... I am most humble and appreciative... Bless you always
You are so very kind. I love doing this for you. It's an education that's long overdue for all women (and men).
I'm telling my 19 year old daughter to start watching you! These videos are a MUST MUST MUST for women at all ages! Thank you so very much Barbie! ♡♡♡♡
I agree. The younger the better. So many of these videos are about general health and making good choices for yourself, no matter how young or old you are. You'll be giving your daughter one of the best gifts she'll ever receive.
I did same thing and told her to show her husband. So he better be ready because this is real.
OMG, Dr Taylor, you are scaring me to death!!! BUT, I saw your response to other frightened ladies that knowledge will help take the fear away and that your videos will inform and educate us to mitigate that fear.. THANK GOD for your presence here on RUclips. I find myself eagerly awaiting your videos. We are all hooked!! Can't wait to hear about potential solutions. BTW, very pretty outfit.....but the bright blue eyes and healthy glowing skin speak for themselves. Beautiful. You'll have to talk about ur skincare at some point. Thanks - as always - Nancy.
You are very kind Nancy. I'll talk about skin care a lot.
My own regimen is simple: I wear a hat every single day. And they're big hats. I eat lots of nuts, olive oil, and avocados. (I crave fat!) And I happen to be vegan.
But there are so many ways to have healthy skin and my way isn't for everyone. So I'll give you all the options in every category.
Menopause Taylor yes, your skin is amazing. wow. have u been wearing hats and exercising and eating well your whole life?
I've just subscribed and I'm so glad I did and will definitely follow your next videos👍
Welcome aboard! I think you'll be surprised at how much you learn, and how easy it is.
Thank you...Your education helps me a lot
Unreal!!! Can't wait to hear some solutions!!!! Enjoying this but quite a daunting !😁
Don't worry, Learning this will make it so much easier.
thank you so much for these lessons.... there are so much that our own doctors dont even tell us, then we go around thinking we are really crazy, or something is really wrong with us. so thank you for educating us about this!
You are so welcome, and you are so correct. You deserve to know everything, and that's why I do this.
Thanks for the video. I love today's earrings and necklace/blouse.
Well, thank you. It's actually a dress with a lacy vintage collar and a necklace on top of that. I like to pile it all on at once.
Hi love I found your channel true Dominique and I am so grateful, this is very informative and helpful and with the smile you have on your beautiful face 😘❤️
I'm glad you're her, my dear.
What you are doing for women is life changing! I didn't want to think about menopause until I HAD to. Well right before I turned 52 it hit me like a ton of bricks! Hot flashes, night sweats, muscles aches! I always thought when I had to face menopause there would be doctors to help me...WRONG!! My PCP just snarled her nose when I mentioned my symptoms and wanted to put me on an antidepressant! I was shocked. She Pretty much ignored my plea for help! I can't thank you enough for caring enough to educate us on this! You are my new best friend! :)

This is the education you deserve. And I will do everything I can to help you. If you need my personal attention, I do one-on-one consultations, too (on Skype, FaceTime, Facebook Messenger, WhatsApp, and the phone). I'm always here for you.
22 symptoms but they feel like 22 million. It's hard work to be a sweet lady with all of this going on but we've gotta keep on keeping on and seeking out effective solutions. We are worth it.
This is extremely helpful. I've been noticing a difference in my moods and just thought it was other things. Thank you!
Just think about how moody tweenagers can be when going through puberty.
Well, menopause is, quite literally, puberty in reverse. So you are really a geriatric tweenager!
Thank you for sharing and teaching about perimenopause / menopause!🌹❤️🌞
You are ever so welcome, my dear!
Thanks Dr. Barbie, Very informative. I have most all the symptoms... I am 57... Thanks for all your hard work.
You're so welcome, Debbie. And I'm glad you know that what you're experiencing is not unusual. I want women to talk about this more. The silence is a major part of the problem.
So glad I discovered you ! You’re the best

You're so welcome, Michele. You'll find that if you watch them in order, you'll know everything! The number after the title gives you the order.
I had a hysterectomy at 25 and my symptoms are now really bad I'm 60 now and the hot flashes and the emotions and mood swings are unbearable I been going through this for so long I can't take it no more what can I do?
Awesome to know! Thank you, Barbie😃
You're welcome. I'm glad this is helpful.
Some people might think this is depressing. I think it’s great to know! At 45, I’m starting to feel some of these things and now I know it’s OK. And I know that I will learn to deal with it nicely. Thank you!
I love your attitude. The whole idea of this education is to learn everything you need to know in order to make the rest of your life the very best of your life.
I applaud you for getting this education before you need it. My dream is fo al women to get it in their 20s and 30s.

Hi Menopause Barbie! I am a new subscriber! This is my first video…I saw you getting the make over on Dominique's channel! You look great without and with the make up! This is the first video of yours that I am watching. I will get the book asap! I am kinda not wanting to watch because I am scared…but I will watch…I am 41 years old, with a 5 year old. My mom keeps telling me that my aunts went through menopause early and she thinks I am going through menopause because I appear to be moody etc. I don't know I feel fine…I will watch this video and then watch the others in order…thanks for sharing this information!
I'm proud of you! Yes, if you watch them in order you'll know absolutely everything, I promise. I'm here to help you.
I adore this woman. She is soooo amazing. Taught me so much. Am eternally grateful.
It's my pleasure, my dear. And thank you for appreciating my efforts.
Thanks so much for explaining Menopause in such great detail and with passion. You are making a difference in all of our lives.
You are soooooo beautiful!
I am 45 and my hair is falling and I got sunspots recently, they bother me a lot.
Please do a tutorial on how to care for your skin and hair in pre, peri and post menopausal stages.
Love and hugs from Canada!!!!
I'll be doing a couple of tutorials on how to take care of your skin AND a couple on managing hair loss. There's nothing I won't cover. Right now, the best thing you can do for your skin is avoid the sun. That will make the biggest difference of all.
Progesterone can help with Melasma /sun spots
Thank you..informative video and CLEAR PRONOUNCIATION for us foreign followers!!!! Greetings and love from greece...❤❤
You are so very welcome, my dear!
I really enjoyed your use of the French presses to explain the estrogen and testosterone. I got it!
Fantastic. I'll be using all sorts of props that make understanding simple. I love thinking up these things.
Fantastic! So clear and... OMG, so true. Those symptoms are killers and yes, sometimes they present all together!
I'm always so glad when my tutorials make the bells ring and light bulbs turn on. I especially love knowing that I'm allaying some fears.
You're such an amazing teacher. Thank you.
You are so very kind. Thank you.
I’ve learned so much from you! Went back for some refresher videos. The printables are not opening and can’t find them on your website. I’d love to have those available. Thank you!
All the documents are available at MenopauseTaylor.ME. If you need help, write an email on my website and my assistant will help you.
I am so glad I have found you! I am about to binge watch your videos and hope I am able to learn more from you that the doctor I just left! I have been bleeding non stop for two months and I get, "you are getting to that age!" That was not very helpful.
I am looking forward to watching your videos and hoping to learn
Watch them in order, and I guarantee you'll understand everything. It sounds to me like you're peri-menopausal and your hormones are out of whack. And that's exactly what's typical for peri-menopause. If you're not opposed to taking some form of hormonal therapy, the birth control pill, patch, or vaginal ring will straighten things out more immediately than anything else.
If you do nothing, you'll probably continue to have irregular bleeding for months before your periods start to space out.
I read that these might also be symptoms: dry eyes, itchy skin, heart palpitations, racing thoughts, cold feet. I didn't know it was happening because I've had insomnia most of my life. I just thought it was stress. But lately the insomnia has gotten much worse even though my life is good and I've developed many of the symptoms you listed plus the ones I mentioned. I was so confused. I already eat a whole food vegan diet, do yoga and walk everyday, etc, but it wasn't enough to compensate for the loss of estrogen. So glad I found you! Thanks to you I just started eating a lot more soy and using estrogen & progesterone creams. I'm hopeful I can start sleeping well.
Never forget: Nutrition is nutrition. Exercise is exercise. A hormone is a hormone. Never will nutrition and exercise do the job of a hormone. It is just magical thinking to assume it will.
Don't hesitate to schedule a consultation with me at MenopauseTaylor.ME. I will tailor everything specifically to YOU so that you can choose your best options. I do them all via video.
Thank you souch for this information! Lada.
You're so very welcome.
Wow! Wow! Wow! You are totally amazing 👍😊🙏
Thank you so much for sharing your videos 💙💙💙
You are absolutely welcome, my dear.
You are describing my life! I feel I'm in perimenopause. So glad I've found your channel! It's difficult to be sure because I had a hysterectomy (kept my ovaries), so I don't know what my cycles are right now.
Welcome to "Menopause University," Angela. I'm so glad you're here, getting the menopause education you deserve.
If you start with video #1, and watch them all in order, you will definitely understand everything. But if you watch my video randomly, you will completely sabotage your entire menopause education.
And if you ever want me to tailor all the facts specifically to YOU, just schedule a consultation with me at MenopauseTaylor.ME. I do all consultations via video conferencing, so it doesn't matter where you live.

Dr Barbie
Am a new subscriber n yr video is very enriching n helpful
Thks a lot 4 precious explanations
Mariam,
Thank you Barbie! Besides some of those symptoms, I also have pain in my teeth, as if my gums were shrinking! Monthly, they hurt for 2 days non stop! :(
You are probably feeling pain due to shifting of your teeth. It's like when a kid wears braces and has pain because the braces are shifting his teeth. Be sure to see a dentist. Just because it's normal for teeth to shift doesn't mean they're shifting in the ways you want them to. And you need to rule out any other reason for your pain.
I thank God for you and your channel.Barbie!
And I thank you for being you, Debora. (Sorry I misspelled your name in my previous response.)
Hi Barbie, I came from Dominique's channel and I sure will tell my subscribers about you. You are lovely and I am so grateful for your channel, I just turned 46 and know nothing about menopause, but I know "she" will be knocking at my door soon lol, so with your help I feel I will be prepared. xoxoNisha
Oh Nisha,
Your timing is perfect! Keep watching these in order and you will be so well prepared! I'm so excited that you've joined me. I have a huge syllabus of information for you, and I just know you're going to use something I teach you every single day.
@@MenopauseTaylor I’m going through the worst time right now!
night sweats and then not sleeping and chronic migraines☹️
@@christinasextonsoprani1843 Consider scheduling a consultation with me at MenopauseTaylor.ME, my dear. I will help you with all your options.
You are amazing! Love your videos.
Well, thank you, my dear.
Hi MB!
I have had 20 of the symptoms you listed in tutorial 11. I got to a point where I couldn't bare suffering any more as I also have an autoimmune disease called ankylosing spondylitis to deal with. I started pharmaceutical bhrt despite the fact that my mum died of BC age 50 and when I was just 12. It's already helping me live life again. I don't think I can go without it now even though I found out recently that my mum had a hysterectomy also which I didn't know about as I wasn't told because I was so young when it all happened and since no one had mentioned it I only just found out. Not sure if it was linked to her BC, but It was at the same time as her single mastectomy. What a life!!!! x
Can you schedule a consultation with me? You have some misgivings about all this, and I'd like to give you facts so that you don't feel so unsure of how you should manage your menopause. Peace of mind is everything. And I can give you a lot of peace of mind in a consultation.
If you're interested, go to MenopauseTaylor.ME to schedule one.
Oh I will do, let me save up my notes first. Until then I'll have to put up with the NHS, I say put up with but truthfully I'm grateful for it, ppl have a lot less in other parts of the world. Thank you for your concern MB. Your the best....fact, this we know is true. X
I'll be here whenever you need me, my dear.
Fantastic videos thank you! I get all those symptoms plus more...how about heart palpatations and indigestion? Is this common?
Laura,
Heart palpitations are very common, usually in association with hot flashes.
Indigestion is worrisome. Why? Because you need to have it evaluated. Here's why:
the biggest riskier menopausal women is heart attack. 1 out of ever 2 women dies from a heart attack. That's a statistic most women don't know. The other big important thing for all women to know is that the symptoms of heart attack are completely different for men and women.
Men have a crushing chest pain with radiation to their left arm.
Women don't.
Women have jaw pain, neck pain, bask pain between the shoulder blades, or INDIGESTION. Some women have no pain. Most women do not even use the word "pain" to describe what they feel when they[re having a heart attack. They use the words, "pressure," "tightening,"ache."
So that's why I want you to get your indigestion checked. Unfortunately, most women would be more worried about the palpitations and less worried about the indigestion. It's the opposite. Please see your doctor NOW.
I have had both of those symptoms and went to see a cardiologist and gastroenterologist. I was told that I am fine by both? I am convinced that it must be either vegas nerve or hormone related.
I'm loving your delivery, such rich wisdom, peppered with a wonderful sense of humor! I'm 63 next month, aged 51 when menopause began, I'm interested in your elaborating on hot flashes, as I've had them for around 11 years. Much is attitude, and the decisions to not be a victim, but being proactive, and that's why I love you! You're giving us the tools we need to press on. Xo
Oh, I'll be covering hot flashes in great detail. It will be a while before we get to them, though. I expect it to be after the first of next year. I have 138 videos already planned. Of course there will be more than that.
If you want to jump ahead, get my book. The information is there, too ... just not as fun.
+Pj Dallas...yes, I do. Years ago I read an article stating that many women get a subtle alert in their stomach, chest area. Sure enough, just before my hot flash begins, I feel it first in my stomach and used to get a very anxious feeling with it. I've learned over the years to breath through it, and ride it out.
+Menopause Barbie Ok then, I am buying ur book then. But I'm still watching ur videos are a blast. Somehow hearing u say these scary things makes it more palatable. Video suggestions 1. How to talk to ur spouse about what ur going thru! (I am sharing my/your notes with my husband.) 2. (The aforementioned in another post) Skin care - ur beauty and exercise tips and tricks directed specifically to those of us girls going thru the 'pause..LOL!!...and who want to be as healthy and nubile as possible !!!
You are so welcome PJ! Thank you for sharing your experience, I am so happy Dr. Barbie has stepped up to the plate, using this forum for us women. Carry on PJ, we are doing this! xoxo
Something else about the onset of my hot flash, it is a quick "sense of dread" feeling...and then the hot flash begins...it's reassuring to know other's feel similar symptoms.
Menopause Barbie - you are such an encouragement! I am truly grateful for you and your thoughtful and clever sharing of information. The transition was extremely challenging for my mother, and it's a comfort to be equipped with this information when I enter that phase of life. Your lovely heart radiates with authenticity, and I applaud you for supporting and empowering women! Hugs!
Thank you so much, Erin. I guarantee you'll be prepared for your menopause if you keep watching these videos. I'll leave nothing out, and you won't have to struggle like your mom did.
Omg I’m laughing and crying at the same time!!
That's good! I want you to laugh and learn. And I want you to enjoy getting this education. I promise you that, if you watch all my video in order, you will see that you have tremendous power in making the rest of your life the best of your life.
I have PCOS and I have SOO many of what's on the list. I'm 40 but o so confused lol. I'm so happy to have found u your a huge blessing.
Leanna,
Everything I teach will help you. For now, find out if you're a candidate for a hormonal birth control method (birth control pills or patches or vaginal rings). Any of those will make a huge difference in your PCOS symptoms.

+Menopause Barbie I'm currently on Meraina IUD but I will be watching.
That's good, but if you are still having symptoms, watch to see if you prefer something else. Mirena is progesterone only. If that isn't sufficient, you'll have the option of adding estrogen in some form.
+Menopause Barbie Ok, I'll be looking into that and watching your series. The hot flashes R unbearable and the irritation, my husband has even noticed other issues so definitely probably need to be seen.
Thank you so much for the good information be bless....
You are very welcome. It's my pleasure.
I had almost every symptom. I'm on HRT now and doing well. I'm a Clinical Psychologist, the positive is that I can assess women's mental health more accurately, because when I became unwell (and I'm happy to call it that) at 47 it sent me into a research storm. And, now I am more informed than ever. I pass your channel onto these gorgeous, capable clients. Thank you 🙏
Thank you so much, Maria. This is the menopause education that all women deserve. If you watch all my videos in order, starting with the very first one, you will understand absolutely everything.
@@MenopauseTaylor I am doing that currently, and that is EXACTLY what I recommend to the women I work with. Bits and pieces of information is just not good enough. This series is a must. Once again Thank you 🙏
@@mariadejucilene7659 You are so very welcome, my dear. I love your enthusiasm.
Omgggg I’m definitely starting menopause
Well, I'm here to help you. And here are my very first words of wisdom: Start at video 1 and watch them in order. If you do, I assure you that you'll understand everything.
I respond to commente here on RUclips daily, so I can help you every step of the way. But, please, please don't just jump around. The order of these videos is very, very intentional. They're like building blocks. You'll be shocked at what you don't know. And I'll teach you how to have menopower and do things your way with knowledge about what you're doing.
I am about to cry. Someone else knows!!! Oh my goodness. I’m so happy I found you. Thanks to Angie from hot and flashy. I’m going to watch all of these and go to a dr. Thank you for doing these videos. I thought I had Alzheimer’s. Thank you again
Alice,
You make me so happy! Welcome aboard to "Menopause Taylor University." You'll find that if you start at the very first video (going by the number after each title), you'll understand absolutely everything. And you'll be shocked at what you didn't know, and delighted that you now do know.
Each video builds on the last. It's just like school: You had to learn the alphabet before you could read. And nowadays, there are so many overwhelming misconceptions that women mistake as facts ... that you just don't know what you don't know.
I respond to all comments here on RUclips daily. So, I will answer all your questions ... but I'll also know if you aren't watching the videos in order. (I'm like your mother. I have eyes in the back of my head!)
And if you need me to help you tailor anything to your personal situation, you can schedule a one-on-one consultation at MenopauseTaylor.ME any time.
Can you give us an update Alice Rice?
@@KandyKoatedKrafts I changed my diet cut out almost all sugar and added a ton of veggies and fruit. I also take a good women’s vitamin for menopause. My symptoms are way less than they used to be. Brain fog is still an issue though but it’s mostly on the days when I haven’t slept well. Thanks for asking
@@alicerice8506 that's good news! ❤❤
You’re a blessing.
You are very kind. Thank you for appreciating my efforts.
Oh lord ... I'm hoping that the acne I've battled my entire adult life won't return during this stage of my life. It went away after I started eating with a keto approach back in 2018, and I didn't know if it was due to my body changing as I headed closer to menopause, or if it was my diet. I just know that I don't want to have to deal with it again ... blehhhh 😬 Thank you so much for this content. I'm resolved to learning everything I can about this new phase of my life so that I will be well informed when it comes time to figure out how I want to manage it.
Well, acne can return at peri-menopause. After all, it's puberty in reverse.
Wow - great video.
Yea! I'm so glad you liked it. Be sure to keep watching them ... in order. You'll learn everything!
Thank you so much for these videos. In the beginning of this video you mentioned that you will address light periods/spotting in a future video, would you be able to let me know which video this is please. Thank you❤️
B,
I cover everything in units And I have not gotten to that unit yet. Nor will I for quite a long time. Please consider scheduling a consultation with me.
Bleeding is something you have to have tailored to your specific circumstance anyway. So, even if I did have a published video on it, you'd still need a consultation. Just go to MenopauseTaylor.ME to schedule.
Dear Barbie... As my Mother died and I did not have an opportunity to ask her about her menopause-the only thing I know is that she was about 48 when "this awful thing" :-) came to her life I treat you as my teacher and a big help concerning the problem of menopause. Thank you. Greetings from Poland.
I'm here to help you. And, while many women assume their own menopause will mimic their mother's, that is not the case. Keep watching my videos in order, and know that I respond to comments here on RUclips daily. And, if you need my personal attention, schedule a one-on-one consultation at MenopauseTaylor.ME.
Man oh man-I have 20 out of 22 of those symptoms...arghhhh-the joint pain for me in my wrists and hands is the worst. I am 6 months out and am going to make an apt for HRT, thank you for this info-you are a godsend.
Brenna,
Please consider scheduling a consultation with me and having it BEFORE you see any doctor. There is more to all this than you can possibly imagine. And I assure you that, by consulting with me first, you will avoid numerous pitfalls.
@@MenopauseTaylor I would love to schedule an appointment with you. I am 52(oct 5) with one ovary(for 8 yrs) so have been contending with perimenopause for awhile...how do I go about scheduling with you??
@@brennakohlhase4194 Go to MenopauseTaylor.ME. But wait until Monday to try scheduling. My website is being upgraded right now.
I’m 44 and I think I have ALL these symptoms😭 Take me now JESUS!🙏🏻🙌🏻
No! Just start at video 1 and watch all my videos in order. I will teach you everything you need to know in order to make the rest of your life the best of your life.

Never had hot flashes or night sweats but I’ve had all the other symptoms for several years now and just this year (my 48’th) I started skipping periods. I always thought menopause begins when you start skipping periods. But have I already been in menopause for a while? This past month I started feeling pain in my vagina and it feels dry. Just this week I started getting headaches which I’ve never had in my whole life. I’m so glad I discovered your channel. Just in the nick of time.
Duchess,
But you are teaching me and I am gracious.
You're being proactive. And before you know it, you're going to realize that you know much more than any of your friends. Stay tuned, Kimberly. I won't let you down.

I'm 49 right now heading to 50 by August a year from now when I researching about menopause even though I don't have it any symptoms yet I was just trying to get ahead and knowing about it and be prepared. But I can't find anyone that make sense to me. Until one day I Google vitamin for heading to menopause so I don't feel it or may say didn't happen and that's the only time your video came out and the way you explain to each vitamins the function cause or effects it attacks me so I went to all your videos from the beginning and take notes. I love it easy to understand I order your book I print the material. I have a sizeable group of Filipino community here in Scottsdale two months from now I'm going to held a menopause party at my place. We just renovated the place we live up by the mountain internet is bad so I ordered large TV and satellite wifi by help of your video I can play the RUclips on it. Thank you very very much for everything you've done and God bless you more!!!
This makes me so happy! All women deserve to have a compete education on menopause. You are doing your part to ensure that your loved ones do.
I keep having an AHA moment after another watching your videoes. The mood swings set in...It is a bit emotional to get to know myself all over again. This autumn will be different for sure👏🏻. The last year I have been having trouble to get to the toilet in time when I have to pee, and it seems like I have to pee all the time. Can this be related to my post menopause? I do drink a lot of tea, but I have never had this problem before. I am talking about your channel to a lot of women in my life, and they are just as excited as me. Soon there will be a "Menopause Barbie" fanclub here in Norway 😊. The fans of Justin Bieber call themselves the beliebers. What should we be named? Thank you 💛.
Isn't it a relief to know that what you've been experiencing is understandable?
And speaking of relief, your question about having trouble getting to the toilet in time is absolutely a part of menopause. It falls into the category of "Urinary incontinence" in the list of symptoms of menopause. I'll be giving you a few tutorials on that (much later on). In the book, it's chapter 23. Your tea drinking is not the problem all by itself. It has to do with a variety of things.
Thank you so much for spreading the word about Menopause Barbie. I think we should all call ourselves "Menopause Barbies!"
+Menopause Barbie Thank you for your answer. Another AHA😊. Enjoy your week.
SIGNS: Irregular periods, hot flashes&night sweats, inmsonia, fatigue, forgetfulness, mood swings, irritability, depression, cravings, breast pain, joint problems, dry skin, hair loss, hair growth, vaginal dryness, urinary infection, incontinence, weight gain, sex drive alterations, acne, headaches... wow, amazing things to look for 🤯
Hi Dr Barbie! My main symptom is nausea...24/7. It was the same when I was pregnant. At first I didn’t realise it was perimenopause, but after a year and a half of terrible suffering, I came upon a forum on the internet where it was being discussed. I was so relieved as my GP had finally convinced me I was nauseous from stress and depression! I found myself a good Naturapath and he prescribed me some bio identical progesterone cream and the nausea is mainly a thing of the past. The other symptom, which was actually the first of my symptoms to begin (age 37), is waking up suddenly with extreme, intense nausea of the food poisoning variety, a racing heart and feeling warm. This would last up to an hour and then subside. These episodes started once or twice a month and became more frequent until I was sometimes having two a night. These also stopped now that I’m using the progesterone. Please could you give me your take on this? I would really appreciate it xxx
Peri-menopause is due to low progesterone. That's why progesterone is helping you ... now.
Peri-menopause is the transition (video 10).
Once you move into post-menopause, you'll have low estrogen, and the progesterone will make your symptoms worse. At post-menopause, you need estrogen replacement. You'll need to still take progesterone with the estrogen if you have your uterus. But if you take progesterone all by itself, you'll continue to have all the symptoms (21 of the 22 in the list) that are due to estrogen deficiency.
Menopause Taylor thanks so much for your reply. I understand why low progesterone causes the morning sickness type nausea but why does it cause those extreme nighttime episodes? They seem completely different and they started about 3 or 4 years before the other nausea!I'm going to continue watching all your videos in order and I'll ask any more questions if I need to. It is super to have such a comprehensive source of information on menopause, you're doing an amazing job. Thanks again.
It's because no hormone works in a vacuum. You possibly started having some hormonal fluctuations that caused the nausea first, and the warm episodes as a consequence of the nausea.
Alternatively, you could actually have a "bug" that causes the nausea. I hope you ruled out infectious diseases and parasites before attributing this pattern of nausea at night to peri-menopause. It's not a common complaint during peri-menopause.
Menopause Taylor thank you. Yes, I ruled out infectious diseases and parasites and even had an abdominal ultrasound. It's definitely hormonal as it has stopped since using the progesterone cream.
I'm glad you pinpointed the problem. The rapidly-rising progesterone levels in early pregnancy are what cause nausea and vomiting then. So, maybe it has the same effect on you now.
OMG Dr.Barbie, I am post menopausal AND have hypothyroidism 😱. And yes It seems the symptoms of both are like very much like.
My husband was so happy we have you here on RUclips, he printed the worksheet for me, thank you again!
What a great guy. He knows that these tutorials will make life better for both you. I'm so proud of you two.
Thank you so much!!! Are muscle aches also a symptom? I have most of these.😳
They are for some women ... but not typically. Your muscle aches could be something else entirely, so be sure to get that checked.
Dr. Taylor,
I hate to bother you again, but I had a question on the "periods with a personality change". I am 45 and my periods the last year have been changing and instead of becoming further apart they are increasing in length. They are lasting 10-14 days and seem to be two weeks on, two weeks off. A day or two days of heavy flow and the rest of the time it is just light spotting. Is this a part of peri-menopause or could it be something I need to check into with my ob-gyn? I wasn't dealing with this when I saw her earlier this year.
Thank you so much for your very informative and fun tutorials, such a blessing.
Your questions are never a bother. And your question is a very good one. In general, we expect your periods to be lighter OR heavier, shorter OR longer, as well as skipping some periods. But, as with everything, there are limits to what is "normal." If your periods are longer than 7 days, or more than 2 days longer than your normal periods, you should have them evaluated. It will give you peace of mind to do so. I think you should see your ob/gyn again just for this.
Eventually, I'll be giving you some dedicated tutorials on just periods, but they won't air for a while. In the meantime, you'll have this evaluation behind you and won't have to worry.
This is so informative thank you! I am 45 and experiencing a few symptoms of Perimenopause (irritability, forgetfulness, very occasional hot flashes, some hair loss) . I also have ADHD and have heard Menopause and peri menopause can cause ADHD symptoms to flare up! I am looking to manage my ADHD with meds and also considering starting HRT. My Doctor is suggesting a Mirena IUD and an estrogen patch. I just worry if I'm too young to start? Maybe I should wait a few years until my symptoms get worse?
Hind,
Consider scheduling a consultation with me at MenopauseTaylor.ME. In order to help you, I need to tailor everything specifically to YOU, which is something I cannot do in a comment box.
And I see that you are not watching my videos in order, which will sabotage your entire menopause education. A consultation will give you what you need NOW, and then you can watch the videos in order without pressure.
Thank you a lot! Will you talk about options for Breast cancer survival ? I can not do hormone replacement..
I'll be giving you a bunch of tutorials on how to reduce your risk for breast cancer and how to detect breast cancer. They are waaaaay down the line and won't air for a long time.
I have to say the worst symptom of all for me is the anxiety but it wasn't on your list. Every woman I've talked to going through menopause has had some sort of anxiety.
Anxiety is a symptom of estrogen deficiency.
