Actually you can be tested to see if you're going through perimenopause- I think it's your FSH levels (I had mine tested when going through IVF). There's a wonderful book called Screaming to be Heard by Elizabeth Vliet, M.D.- I highly recommend it. As for birth control pills- she recommends a higher estrogen/progesterone pill, not low dose pills for depression. Take care, judy
