 Go to the Doctor and get a complete medical. Everything. Blood and urine samples. Bone density. Pap smear. Also ask for the hormone test that will indicate how far away is menopause - believe me Doctors can determine at what stage you are in that. The works, even if you feel great, just to eliminate all possible organic issues as a cause.
Get a heart fitness test. They do that on a treadmill with heart monitors attached.
If you do not already attend a gym and swim in a pool every week you could join a gym with a pool. Get a personal trainer there to work out a routine that includes cardio, weights, circuit, and swimming. For better balance.
Check out what meals you serve.
And the portion sizes.
Some foods give you a boost and protect you. Some foods drag your energy down. Good foods include nuts (without salt), seeds, pulses, lots fresh fruit (with no sugar in it). Lots salads and vegetables. (and not drizzeled in too much oil). Use a limited amount of plain youghurt but no cream. For iron include a nice palm size piece steak twice a week. Go to a dietician to you discover more about the food combinations that will best support you.
Are you trying to do too much? Working, plus keeping the home nice, plus any other activities?
Is there too much stress in your life? You are getting a tiny bit older, so may need to scale back some activities that are not essential.
Can you perk up how you feel about you? By getting regular pampering you will feel delicious.
But not sex. You should ensure you are fit and healthy enough to keep pace with a
man your husband's age.
