HRT - I cannot believe the difference

[rudehealth]

Just that really.
Makes me sad I didn’t go on it a year ago.

I’m not menopausal (late thirties). Just very low on oestrogen.

No more brain fog. No more low mood. I feel like I’m back on the land of the living and it’s just wonderful.

Two things though stop me thinking it’s a miracle.

1. The bloating!
2. Anyone notice a reduction in appetite? For someone very underweight trying to increase her weight, this isn’t great

But other than that - I’m just so happy

Anyone else feel the same?!

I started taking it about 2.5 weeks ago, for me the driving force was the horrific hot flushes. They have all but gone. I get slightly warm occasionally but the relief is incredible!

No reduction in appetite for me though (sadly!).

Bonfires - are you menopausal? Pills or patch?

I’m on patch.

Can’t deliver that on it at 37, but on it I am and feeling fairly euphoric atm

believe not deliver

I am peri-menopausal (48), I have tablets Elleste Duet. The other symptoms haven't gone completely - low mood, poor sleep etc. but the flushes were crippling and making me very distressed.
