Magnesium?!

[SausageCasseroles]

So I've come off some meds that used to help with sleep and my sleep is all over the place.

I did try the Better You magnesium spray but have now ordered some Prizmaz bisglycinate as a friend recommended it.

Can I take both? Would that be too much magnesium?! Is one better than the other for sleep??

Do j need to compensate with anything else. I don't like the idea of getting it wrong or causing a deficiency of something else.

But I so need to sleep. (Probably perimenopausal, neurodiverse...stressed.)

Oh and CBD oil - swear by it

I have wondered about hrt....

Periods haven't stopped yet but I am 45

@SausageCasseroles HRT helps through perimenopause so you don't usually wait until your periods have stopped to start HRT. If you have perimenopausal symptoms like insomnia it would be a good idea to try HRT.

I used to have awful trouble sleeping, I’ve tried it all from over the counter to antidepressants. A friend recommended magnesium tablets to me. I thought they wouldn’t work as they are just supplements but they work like a dream! I take x2 150mg tablets at bed time

I find it has worked regulating my sleep after a period on steroids. Happy to accept it may be placebo but it seems to have got me from 1-2hrs sleep to up to 7, sometimes more. I use magnesium glycanate.
