I am approximately one week away from my 31st birthday and I found a WHITE hair poking out of my head. A huge white hair. What the heck? Of course I did what any female would do…I ripped it out of my head. Yes I am aware that ten more will probably grow in that spot, but I was on my way to work, no way could I leave that Cruella de Vil streak in my hair.
Now I’m not one to be all freaked out about age…so the fact that I am going to be 31 is not a big deal to me at all. But white hair…big deal. As if us women don’t have enough things to deal with. First there’s the whole needing to wear a bra thing and when the right time to do that is. If you get one too soon in elementary school, you’re a freak of nature to the other kids and they can’t stop talking about it. But on the opposite side of the spectrum, if you don’t get one soon enough, they talk about you then.
But the worst thing us women have to deal with is our monthly visitor. I get the whole biological reason as to why “Aunt Flo” visits, but it doesn’t change the fact that it is a major pain in the behind. So Aunt Flo makes her grand appearance between the ages 11 and 16 and keeps coming back for years and years and years. Just when you think you may be rid of her, you start going through menopause.
So now I realize that I am still a little young to be worried about menopause, but now that I found that white hair, I can’t help but think about when I will have to be dealing hot flashes, night sweats (sound lovely?) and everything else I have to look forward to. Because of the type of person I am, I Googled different natural ways that I can help ward off those lovely symptoms of menopause. One way I ran across was Amberen. It is an all natural pill that supports the body’s natural hormonal function! You better believe I bookmarked this site!
