A 47-year-old woman struggled so badly with the symptoms of perimenopause that she took her own life.
47-year-old Charlotte Sumbland died after struggling with symptoms, reports MEN. Friend of 35-years Stacy Stewart said: "Charlotte and I were so close and had children the same age – our sons, who are 16, were born nine days apart. I just couldn't believe what I was hearing when the news was given to me.
“Charlotte had been talking a lot about the perimenopause – she felt panicky, stressed and suffered sweats. But I still can't believe she felt so bad that she felt she had no option but to do what she did.
