The only thing about that is my hormone tests always show up normal so they never think I'm in peri although I have all the symptoms.
Before I had the HRT I tried a lady magnate, and b vitamins with dong quai .
The magnate was most surprising and cut down on the hot flushes and the dong quai made my periods come back.
I'm not sure if it did anything for my anxiety or depression because I didn't realise they were associated with menopause anyway.
If he/she won't help with hormones get a doctor that will! Try it.
I purchased that magnet too. I don't know that it worked either but I did notice that when I didn't wear it for a couple of days that my anxiety came back.
Well maybe it does work for anxiety. I know when I was using it I was aware if I forgot to put it back after I had a bath,
couldn't say why but I soon realised it was missing.
Yes last year I had complete blood work on my hormones and it came back all abnormal.
My obgyn didn't even bother with hormone testing she based her diagnosis on symptoms. Hormones fluctuate.
That's so true. That's why it's so hard to tell where you are.
