Wine Intolerance

Hiya. I wonder if anyone else is in this position as my friends don't seem as affected as me.
Since entering the perimenopause years, I can barely drink wine/fizz. I just don't enjoy it in the same way and often feel like I have a hangover/headache after one glass. Does anyone else get this? Is it likely to be the sulfites in the wine or my hormones being imbalanced? I used to love the stuff! Also, is organic wine usually sulfite free - I haven't tried it to be fair... 🥂

I went through a period like that just prior to being diagnosed as hypothyroid. Once my thyroid was sorted so were the weird alcohol issues. Certainly won't be the case for everyone but well worth checking through a list of hypothyroid issues and seeing if this may be an issue for you.
