Open Question: Women,how long did your perimenopause last?

I started having symptoms of perimenopause 2 1/2 years ago.I am now 32.I have read that it can last anywhere from 6-12 years!!! I have had a very hard time with anxiety,hot flashes,etc.I had to start taking low dose birth control to help my symptoms.I was just wondering how long it lasted for other women -how long till you went through to menopause?Thanks-GOD-bless
Thanks lovebooks! I take magnesium,it really helps,and a multi.I also walk-it really helped the anxiety.My periods were coming closer,were lighter,then I would go 31 days and flood!I just feel alone because I am so young and none of my friends are dealing with this.
Kim-My mom went through meno early,and needed nerve pills.However she died a few years ago and did not tell me how long her symptoms lasted.I have no sisters.Early meno runs on both sides of my family though.GOD-bless
