I'm hoping someone can guide on Mumsnet - I'm knew to this site.
I have recently had my FSH blood tests done and also oestrogen levels checked and have been confirmed Menopausal. I have been having hot flushes for a while, but more recently had terrible anxiety and some depression for last 6 months hence me getting these tests done. But little guidance from NHS doc but just choose one of the HRT routes.
I have no idea whether it is the menopause and my hormone levels making me feel so rough as I have sadly suffered from bad anxiety before and still on pills for. My private doc has increased my pills for anxiety to see if this will help. But still concerned it could be a hormonal thing and want this checked properly. Can anyone advise on a good gyne who could help and give me some insight re. my blood tests. Thank you so much. I know about John Studd and Nick Panay who are fully booked till at least end of Jan if not March. But wondered whether another good gyne could help. Do let me know.

Do FSH and blood tests for oestrogen levels give clarity to whether you need hormone replacement therapy?
