Impact of endurance training on menopause?

Great topic! 

I am in peri. My period stopped for the better part of 6 months while I trained for IMChoo in 2017. Started back up right after the race. Could have been Amenorrhea but I believe that is usually found in low BMI athletes (which I am not).  In August/September of this year I was on a pretty heavy period for the better part of six weeks. I don't know how much of it was hormones and how much was me just being sick of bleeding but I wasn't even interested in a kiss from my husband of 30 years.  Things weren't really strained but I was in more of a platonic mood.

I started looking in to natural remedies. Started taking cayenne for the bleeding and a Gaia women's supplement for the hormones. The bleeding finally stopped and my feelings toward my husband went back to normal. 

All that to say, I am pretty active and seem to be putting up with the same crap that most women put up with. Maybe to a lesser extent (so far). My mother isn't around to ask and I never thought to do it before she passed, but I know that she and Dad divorced when she was about that age.

I don't know anything about menopause......but I do know that lifelong daily workouts likely is helping Sybil.......er....I mean my wife....get through it.  If nothing else.....it's something to hold on to when it seems a bit crazy (her words).
