FFA, Hormones and Menopause

When I was first diagnosed with FFA 5 years ago, my Dermatologist told me that most women with FFA had gone through menopause.  My FSH was tested but stated I was fine.  Recent research seems to suggest that FFA is related to hormones and that many younger women who have FFA are in perimenopause or have had a hysterectomy.  

I have other symptoms related to perimenopause, but I am only 41. 

Wondering if anyone on here has experienced symptoms related to hormones along with FFA.

Even I have heard it that most of the time menopause can occur if you are going through FFA. It is better to get checked it early from the doctor, so that there are no further complications like infertility issues, as regulating your menstrual cycle is very important.
