Woman thought of burnout, discovered it was menopause

A 45-year-old woman thought her symptoms were due to stress and burnout. After an examination, it turned out she was going through menopause. According to AD.nl, she initially did not recognize the symptoms as typical menopausal symptoms, as they are often described differently.

The woman now wants to help other women who may have similar experiences. She noticed that there is little openness about menopause and that many women do not know what symptoms are associated with it. As a result, it can take a long time before they receive the correct diagnosis.

Menopause can manifest in various ways, and not all symptoms are immediately associated with it. According to the source, she mainly experienced fatigue and mood swings, which can also be symptoms of other conditions.
