Appetite is gone

52 yrs old, my last period was in Jan 2026. I know I have to technically wait a yr to be in meno, but my doc measured my hormones a month ago and they were all at post menopausal levels. So I don’t think I’m going to have another period. Have been though the peri ups and downs with hormones and irregular periods for the last 3-4 yrs.

Recently: my brain fog is gone, mood is much more calm and stable (no more rages). I’ve been having a few hot flashes a day, mostly at night. But now I have no appetite. I have to force myself to eat, and am managing with oatmeal and nuts, pasta, cheese and crackers with apple, etc. I eat a few bites and have to force myself to finish the rest. Anyone else dealing with this? Sometimes it’s due to acid reflux.

I’m not depressed, actually feeling pretty good! Any suggestions of how to manage this? Anyone experience similar?
