My ex wife started in her late 30's, yes.......It'ds called "early menopause". She had mood swings, hot flashes, etc. Go to your doctor and  discuss  your symptoms with him. He will tell you for sure. Good Luck, and stay COOL, when you can, lol.

Many women experience hair loss later in life as a result of menopause. The onset of menopause causes a drop off in the production of estrogen. Without the presence of estrogen to produce testosterone blocking enzymes, testosterone can be freely converted to dihydrotestosterone (DHT) on the scalp. The result is a shorter hair growth cycle, finer hair, and shedding. The most prevalent type of hair loss among women is female pattern thinning, known medically as Androgenetic Alopecia (genetic, diffuse hair loss). But there are many other reasons for women’s hair loss, including menopause-related hormonal imbalances, postpartum/ stress-related shedding, chemotherapy, and Alopecia Areata (spotty hair loss). Some hair loss is actually self-induced: The use of harsh chemical relaxers (Scarring Alopecia), or tight hair braiding (Traction Alopecia) can permanently damage the hair follicle. The treatment is the same for women as for men. Rogaine, and hair grafts are some of the treatments for mild thinning. \n\nLook here for treatment ideas http://www.hairclub.com/

Liver, testicular, pituitary, brain, pancreatic, thyroid,.\n\nCancer is not the only thing. Men can develope breast, loose libido, be more aggresive. In women they can develop the characteristics of a man and also the same cancers.

"Studying people who live 100 years and more leads Harvard researchers to conclude that menopause is a major determinant of the life spans of both women and men.\n\nWomen's life span depends on the balance of two forces, according to Thomas Perls, a geriatrician at Harvard Medical School. One is the evolutionary drive to pass on her genes, the other is the need to stay healthy enough to rear as many children as possible. "Menopause draws the line between the two," Perls says. It protects older women from the risks of bearing children late in life, and lets them live long enough to take care of their children and grandchildren."\n\nRead more at the source link.

Some of the posters here are women and don't know guys.\n\nI would say there is a certain amount of congestion that a guy feels when he hasn't had sexual activity for a while. There is a "fullness" feeling in the genitals, the seminal vescicles and prostate are full and need to be evacuated. \n\nIt's not really so much  "sperm" building up in the body as it is semen.  Sperm are the part of semen, basically microscopic cells.\n\nIn young men, especially, they would get frustrated and irritable. I don't know about hot-headed but certainly sex would temper that a little bit (for how long though ??? A guy would need to learn how to rein that in).

Yes, I was an actual subject in that particular study.  \n\nAs I grow older and menopausal I notice quite strange things happening to me and my body.  My voice is getting deeper, I have more facial hair, my balls itch in the morning.  <sigh>\n\nPeace.\n\nBTW:  ROFLBMHODTIMEPIMP\n(rolling on floor laughing, banging my head on desk, tears in my eyes, peeing in my pants)

Menopause, or premenopause, whichever stage you are in is very unpredictable.  There is a book I love called "What Your Doctor May not Tell You About Premenopause" by dr. John Lee.  That man changed my life and answered questions my regular ob/gyn glared at me for asking.

It could be menopause.  Menopause is the medical term for the end of a woman's menstrual periods. It is a natural part of aging, and occurs when the ovaries stop making hormones called estrogens. This causes estrogen levels to drop, and leads to the end of monthly menstual periods. This usually happens between the ages of 45 and 60, but it can happen earlier. Menopause can also occur when the ovaries are surgically removed or stop functioning for any other reason
