Hello foxy polly
I think it is quite common for things to fluctuate unfortunately, which can really knock your confidence. I’ve had this experience with just supplements and bhrt, first 6months were great and then the old symptoms started to creep back in. When I queried it with the menopause society they advised that often women feel better and then have weeks of being back to square 1. I was told to stick with it for a few weeks to see if it settles again. If not, it may be worth changing your supplements/dosage to try to support the hormone change. Good luck, hope you feel better again soon xx
Hi
I’ve had symptoms for at least 12 years, some have improved, some lessoned but others have intensified, my mum still has hot flushes and she is 84!! I naively thought symptoms lasted about five years after the last period, now thinking I’ve got it forever.
