Hi, I am new to mum's net. I wondered if anyone could offer me any advice. I think I may be experiencing perimenopause. I have had vaginal dryness and itching for a three months or so. Then more recently I have had constant urge to urinate and burning in my urethra/bladder area. I have been very unwell with this over Christmas. The Dr has reported no infections after seeking their help on 3/4 occasions. On Christmas day I saw an emergency Dr as I was in such pain. This Dr prescribed oestrogen gel and said it could be my hormones, after four days I am starting to feel better. I have had other symptoms such as back ache, nausea, tingling in my arms and not being able to sleep. I also have a mirena coil which I want to get removed as I fear this may also be contributing to these symptoms. Can advise if these symptoms sound like perimenopause? Thank you
