Menopause

I had to stop taking HRT as it didn’t agree with me, therefore the dreaded hot flushes returned. I would love to know if there is anything I can do to help with them.

Google Menopause doctor “ Dr Louise Newson“. She specialises in it I follow her on Instagram very knowledgable she does talks on different symptoms each week.

Starblaze I recommend a big electric fan at the bedside, sleeping with the window open and keeping the bedroom at Antarctic temperatures ... for the hot flushes.

My partner is pretty placid, he slept through my fidgety nights and (mostly) put up with my mood swings.

I didn’t have HRT and managed ok.
All good wishes ?

Thank you polnan

Its something that doesn't seem to get discussed much and most of my friends are in the same boat

Same here. Resisted HRT for five years (not sure why) and now I feel I MUST be at the end of the marathon. I think it’s about trying natural and seeing what works. The wonderful readers will make suggestions and it’s well worth exploring. My tip is soya milk and a cool drink. Unfortunately for me Alcohol sets mine off ?‍♀️ The health shops give good advice too. Take care of yourself.

oh I came here for my dil who is struggling,, and she has a soon to be 11year old daughter..
