I have recently (last year) started the menopause (I think!) my main issue is that I am extremely irritable/intolerant and inclined to loose my rag at the slightest thing. I absolutely hate feeling this way and it’s adding to my lowered self esteem that has sadly come for me with getting a bit older.
Does anyone have any advice about the bad temper! Have you had the same issue or is it unusual? I don’t (luckily) get hot flushes but the bad temper is pretty debilitating, and to be honest is making me depressed.
I am not sure about HRT, as we have various family medical problems which made my GP cautious about recommending it when I spoke to him on the phone,but I would be willing to consider it if it might make my moods better!
