@Emma I hear you i feel like I'm on constant pms it's getting Me down I'm really irritable. I'm either 2 hot then 2 cold. I have decided to book in with the Dr's. I have other symptoms to I just want to be myself again. Your not alone.
Is it worth booking with gp? My cycle is totally normal and worried they will just brush it off. I get the too hot then too cold I’m driving the kids nuts adjusting the heating and don’t even get me started on the duvet battle when my partner stays over 😂
@Emma - you'd be best advised to note all your symptoms and log them before a doctors' appointment. There's a symptom checker in the Handbook for you to use 🩷
@Emma I agree with Sharon definitely take notes which I'm doing before speaking to Dr's I've checked all symptoms alongside my adhd. Yeah I get that my partner who is hot blooded is wanting the fire on as I'm melting lol 😆
Thanks so much for the handbook. I’ve had a quick scan thru and will have a proper read tonight. I like the idea of recording it all. Brain fog and crappy memory wouldn’t help at the Drs if I can’t remember symptoms and occurrences
@Emma - you're welcome 😊 The bit at the beginning should be useful too, as it explains more about perimenopause, testing (or not!), and some general pointers 😊🩷
@Sharon I've also downloaded the hand book to. 🙂
Hi all, new to this group thank you for the handbook reading through it now
@Elizabeth - welcome 🙂 I hope it's really useful 🩷
I’m new to this group too. I cry a lot for no reason and am tired all the time. I just feel in despair sometimes 🥲I’m thinking perimenopause is a big part but I also have long term mental health issues so am depressed a lot
Hello 😊 Sorry to hear you're struggling with symptoms. Using regulated transdermal Body-identical HRT is the first-line treatment for peri/menopausal symptoms and is low risk for mist people most of the time. There are other things you can do to help with symptoms too. Our M-brace The Change Symptom Handbook should be useful here: https://drive.google.com/file/d/1Hk8DpLZEiPkax3QzoI1boKFibjnuHBAl/view?usp=drivesdk 🩷
