Wow, it never occurred to me, age 44 now,
45 in a few days that this itching that
started a few days ago, on my right side,
inside my body, was from menopause. I
never heard of it but along with
everything else I am feeling, like
constantly having PMS......emotional,
agitated, etc......all that is from
Menopause? Anyone that has some ideas how
to treat without prescriptions would be
great. Thanks!!

I am also 44 and I have been having the
same problem for the last few days It is
inside my body through my legs, up my back
and in my arms, I also have ringing ears
and it seems to bother me the most when I
lay down. It's not fun. I've also been
have heart flutters, thumping and racing.
I spoke to my Doctor and she told me that
I am to young, but my body is saying I'm
not. I do feel a little better after
reading your posts because I had no idea
what was going on.

I am 44 and had the itching all of you
describe. It was awful. I could not sleep
as it worsened at night. I finally tried a
product by Jarrow Formulas called midlife
ease. It took about two weeks to make the
itching completely subside but was
effective within the second day of taking
it - the itching was not as bad. I am now
itch free. Maybe it will offer relief to
you, too.

I also have the same problem that you all
mention. I seem to have it more in my
feet and legs than any where else. I am
in my early 60's, but I remember having
this problem off and on for many years. I
also seem to have it more frequently at
night than during the day.
About 2 years ago I was diagnosed with
Type 2 Diabetes and since that time, the
itching has seemed to have gotten worse.
I have done some research on the Internet
and have discovered that it is a form of
Neuropathy. Which makes sense since it is
inside the body and does not seem to be
caused by any type of allergic reaction to
anything. Neuropathy also made sense
because my itching sensations frequently
seems to follow a line on my foot or up my
leg. I have also noticed that when I get
"an itching" in one of these areas, it
will come back in that same area the next
time.
My "episodes" seem to occur for about 30
minutes at a time. The itching seems to
start slowly and gets progressively worse
and stronger and then tapers off until it
finally goes away. I have also discovered
that if I can put cold compresses on the
area it stops the itching much faster. I
have also found that taking an
anti-inflammatory medicine (Tylenol,
Aspirin, Ibuprofin, etc.) seems to help.
I hope my situation has possibly shed some
light on what may be going on with you and
that this information will at least give
you some more information to talk with
your doctor about.
