Menopause 101-Red Hot Mamas: Chronic Fatigue Syndrome-Feeling Tired at Menopause

If you are experiencing fatigue on a regular basis during menopause, you may wonder if there is a more serious syndrome behind it. Chronic fatigue syndrome (CFS) is not as common as mild fatigue, yet it is a significant condition that affects four times as many women as men.
CFS is most common among people in their 40's and 50's, precisely the time when most women are undergoing the transition into menopause. This leads to the common misconception that other menopausal symptoms are signs of CFS.
Learn to distinguish between chronic fatique syndrome and the milder fatigue that is typical for menopausal women. Also learn about the most common causes of CFS and how to best manage the symptoms.
