she is on a contriception pill, but she gets a lot of hot flushes and she quite snappy, so is she starting to go through the change?

Sounds like the pre-change. My mom went through it for a couple of years before the actual change happened. The only thing that helped her was herbal supplements. I can't remember what they were called, but I know that they are available at the vitamin shops in the malls, GNC for one.

The doctor can do a blood test to see if she has gone into the menopause.
I have been peri menopausal for quite a few years. And I still am. I had a hysterectomy at 32 and had 1 ovary removed.
Peri menopausal is when your body is just starting to go into the menopause. The doctor prescribed me HRT tablets before taking them I used to get hot flushes and got snappy.
I still get snappy but then I am a woman. lol
Hope this helps. :)

Most people know their own bodies far more than any doctor. Hot flashes and irritability are two of the most common indicators of perimenopause (pre-menopause) and can be a signal that the body is beginning to enter menopause.
I would suggest having your mother seek a second opinion.

She is going through her pre menopause which can start a year or two before she actually starts the menopause.
Tell her to try some herbal remedy's available at any chemists, which help her through this.

If the doctor says she isn't, she isn't. Better have 2nd opinoin.
