A member asked:

I feel exhausted every month after the last day of my period . is this normal? i am 48

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Fatigue: To really answer this, I would need more information. While it can be normal in perimenopaise to have fatigue after menses, it could be a sign of anemia especially if you have heavy menses or a sign of other issues. I would recommend seeing a doctor
