HI, thanks for using healthcare magic
It is possible that you may be in perimenopause, this is the time period before menopause occurs.
It can lasts weeks, months or years.
Menopause is diagnosed when there is a year with no bleeding at all.
There are different peri menopausal symptoms but fatigue, difficulty sleeping and decreased libido are some of the symptoms.
I hope this helps
