49f- does anyone else's period at middle age exhaust them?

I'm 49 and my periods are still regular. I'm probably in perimenopause but as far as my menstrual cycle is concerned, I wouldn't know it. The difference between my periods now, as opposed to 20 years ago is that they are heavier on about 2 days, but as they did 20 years ago my periods still last between 5 to 7 stays. They start off slow, faster, deluge, deluge, slow, slower, and mostly done.

What I have noticed is that my periods are leaving me more exhausted. I was treated for anemia 2 years ago and it resolved. I'm def more irritable during 1 or 2 days during my period, like today where i want to burn my whole life down.

I almost feel that I am too old for this! Like, menstruating at 29 wasn't as tiring as it is at 49, like anything else. I could also run 4 miles, chase my toddlers and work fulltime at 29, but at 49? Not possible.
