Looks like nobody wants to touch this one with a 10 foot pole.
That's why we shouldn't have babies when we're over 50--we'd forget where we put them.
That must be why all the women I date forget to call me for another one.

This is a ridiculous conclusion. Menopausal "fuzzy thinking" is not about intelligence and does get better but it is almost universal. All my midlife friends complain about it. It is hormonal and most of them will tell you that a balance of natural hormones, including testosterone helps tremendously with this symptom. And, incidentally, many of my friends are going back to "natural hormones" after being scared off by the big study. Susan Sommers has helped us to understand more about ourselves and the world of difference between synthetic and natural hormones. In our home, my husband is as bad or worse than I am concerning complaints of forgetfulness. Men have hormonal fluctuations in midlife as well..This is not just about female discomfort for you guys out there who think you are immune.
LOL!
Well, I didn't have a baby after 50, but I keep asking my husband if we were aware of the dangers of having a baby when I was 35.
Menopause and puberty both hitting at the same time...now that was perfect timing (then my MIL moved in and we were juggling menopause, puberty and senility.)
A 50 year old menopausal woman teaching a 15 year old boy to drive...that was fun!!! He's 17 now, and we both seem to be "over the hump" as far as hormonal fluxes, for which my husband is eternally grateful, LOL.

Unfortunately, she remembers the wrong things at the worst time. And I get in more trouble for it.
Sorry, what were you saying? ;-)
:-) As a woman I reserve the right to remember every detail, even if it's wrong.
My wife never forgets any details when she is angry.
LOL, I was thinking the same thing but forgot what you said.
:-D
24 women... from a Detroit MacDonalds?
Forgot already? Short term memory loss?
LOL! Why are we laughing again???
Oh-h-h-h-h-h-h-h! I never "learned" it! ;-)
Go to the local vitamin store and get DIM capsules.
You can't imagine how much difference it makes with the "fuzzy thinking" problems.
Here's a page on the actuall chemical name/compnents.

This stuff really helps the menopause 'fog'....:)
[as always, YMMV]
It works wonders for men too.
I haven't a clue and I'm stressin' out.
