So at last the itching is just about bearable and now my boobs feel like someone kicked me sad

I thought maybe it was a period coming, I still have been getting them every 3 months or so but they have been sore for about 6 weeks now. Worst in the morning.

Anyone offer any suggestions what might help please?

I read evening primrose but it made me really constipated sad

Thank you for reading x

Jane,

Any possibility of having some blood work done to check your estrogens and progesterone levels? I used to have this issue along with others and I was tested and it was shown that my estrogens were going unopposed with zilch progesterone. I was started on out progesterone cream so many days of out the month, then most recently I started the micronized progesterone pill. This has worked like a charm.

Everyone is different, but having an idea what you are lacking or not, is beneficial before taking supplements or meds.

I hope you get to the bottom of the issue quickly.

Thank you so much Annie. Last time I saw my Dr she said there was no point in doing any blood tests, they would only tell us what we already know . She seems very anto trying to help at all, more about getting on with it. Thanks again xx

Hi Jane.

Annie is 100% right.

Is the doctor that's following you a GP or a Gyno?

If you with a GP only you could be very firm is requesting to be referred to a Gyno.

Are you on any HRT? It really looks like you'd be better off with some progesterone.

Regardless of this and meanwhile why not try these things:

- Vitex- Agnus castus (herbal), it promotes progesterone production if the pituitary is still in the mood;

- Milk thistle + Vit. B6 to cleanse the liver and lower "bad" oestrogen build up;

I'll PM you a few links. Take care. X Teresa.

GP and she is not the slightest bit interested

I'm not on HRT and she put me off it.

I would like to try and manage but like all of us it is hard and a lot of the time painful.

I take B6 already and have some milk thistle so will add that back in.

Thank you, I so appreciate your help xx
