Hi
I have been taking HRT at a 25ml for a few months, I am also taking 25ml of Flux for depression, however after feeling really bad, but appearing to come through, i was my old self for all of five weeks, when i went back to my doctor i asked for patches, i was given these with a higher dose, i do not feel much better, but have noticed an increase in sweating, and feeling hot, could this be because of the higher dose? In addition, is anyone struggling with depression, tiredness, anxiety ect......Will this get better? any advise welcomed....X
i can't take hrt, but hope to try and help, im not the same person i was befor the menapause ,, people often ask where jolly linda has gone,, the change does make us take life more seriousily and i have really done that and less sociable to , i do get really down but have a massive family and 9 grandchildren, so i think i keep on top for them , im not depressed and can't imagine what your going through but i do get tearful, down and unsociable at times things are bigger than they used to be i dont cope as well with stressful situations ,, i hope this helps to let you know we are striving every day with this horrible menaause xxx
Hi Angie,
I have chopped and changed my HRT from synthetic, to patches to pumps and pessaries. I am now, finally doing ok. I take 4 pumps each day of Estrogel Oestrogen and 200mg for 14 days on Utrogestan pessaries. These are the most natural forms of hormones you can get. Proffessor John Studd as done a lot of research into the Menopause and hormones, definatley worth reading up on his findings. Good luck with it all x
Yes, i do, severe anxiety and mild depression. seeing a clinical psychologist now to cope with the anxiety. ant-depressants did not work for me. Made me feel really s****y. Taking Xanor 0.1mg.
