The 12 Days Of Menopause

In the spirit of this holiday season, I’ve created a menopause version of the “12 Days of Christmas” song.

On the FIRST day of menopause,
my symptoms gave to me, annoying hot flashes.

On the SECOND day of menopause,
my symptoms gave to me, TWO sleepless sweaty nights.

On the THIRD day of menopause,
my symptoms gave to me, THREE days with a very dry vagina.

On the FOURTH day of menopause,
my symptoms gave to me, FOUR crazy mood swings.

On the FIFTH day of menopause,
my symptoms gave to me, FIVE extra pounds.

On the SIXTH day of menopause,
my symptoms gave to me, SIX hours of brain fog.

On the SEVENTH day of menopause,
my symptoms gave to me, SEVEN chinny chin hairs.

On the EIGHTH day of menopause,
my symptoms gave to me, EIGHT aches and pains.

On the NINTH day of menopause,
my symptoms gave to me, NINE months of no sex drive.

On the TENTH day of menopause,
my symptoms gave to me, TEN days of dry wrinkly skin.

On the ELEVENTH day of menopause,
my symptoms gave to me, ELEVEN hours of total exhaustion.

On the TWELFTH day of menopause,
my symptoms gave to me, TWELVE months of no more periods.
