Because my doctor refuses to help with perimenopause, I don’t think they have even heard of it, because they keep saying “your too young for menopause and your still having periods”,
When I mention perimenopause they change the subject, I’ve always had my period every month same time, now I will have 2 a month then nothing for 7 weeks etc,
The doctor did hormone tests but as we all know they would need to take a blood test everyday for 2 months to see how our hormones are, so they were normal expect my pituitary gland she said I had a “Microprolactinoma”,
All they have given me is “Cerelle” 75mcg
I’ve never been on any contraceptive pill since I was young,
I woke this morning with period pains (stomach cramps like I usually would get when my period arrives) and tender breasts (again I haven’t suffered with tender breasts since I was 15 years old) they are so tender it’s painful,
My last period was only 6 days ago,
Has anyone else been prescribed the pill and found it helpful, (the nurse said it wouldnt cause weight gain, my biggest worry as I can’t shift the weight I’ve gained I’m 196 lbs!
Xmas day was ruined because I had nausea all day, couldn’t eat Xmas Dinner my dad spent ages preparing, and my mother is termilly ill I wanted to make our last Xmas as best I could and ended up ruining it,
I even looked into seeing a private doctor but I seen the prices and I’m not working at the moment so I’m stuck,
Just thought I’d ask if people did or didnt find the pill helpful so I can make a decision, I know I’ve only been on it 2 weeks but I don’t notice a mass difference
Thanks ladies in advance, its relieving to hear that I’m not alone x
