I have been going through the menopause now for 4 years I have this itch on my arms which is driving me insane the only thing that eases it is icy cold water but doesn’t take away .i have been put on hrt for it I am into my second week but still got itch
Hi Ruby
I have that same itch. Left arm worse than the right and worse at night in bed. Its driving me crazy too. I have tried all creams etc but its still there. I was on HRT for 3 months i dont think i had it then so hopefully yours will go away in a few weeks. Stick with it...
They say it’s that my Oestrogen is low and that’s why I have the itch it’s mainly my right arm but I do get it on both it also burns.i do hope it starts to go soon i am at the end of my tether with it .thank you for letting me know I’m not on my own
Omg, my back will be so itchy it will drive me crazy. And hard to scratch when frozen shoulder is still locked up. I keep a long bar-b-q skewer next to my bed so I can scratch in the middle of the night. My husband broke down and bought me a real back scratcher for Christmas. LOL!
I do notice that the very itchy back goes along with the burning feet, so assuming it's low estrogen.
I get the itchy back, too! Although it's strangely only one quarter of it. Much worse now winter is here. Drives me silly. Can feel the damn itch as I type! :p
