Looking for HRT experiences

4 replies

I think I’m probably peri menopausal. I would be interested to hear other’s experiences with HRT.

The symptoms I am struggling with the most are brain fog/forgetfulness and fatigue. I also have achey joints and weight gain. I have been feeling like this for a couple of years, but have only just considered the menopause. The brain fog is awful, it has an impact on all aspects of my life. I often also have to nap during the day to help with the fatigue. Can a you’re late to this. I’ve had blood tests that picked up nothing.

Im thinking about going on HRT. What have other’s experiences been? Did anyone gain weight on it. Did it help with the brain fog?

I'm 44 and have been using Evorel Sequi patches for over 6 months now.

They are wonderful and helped my brain fog and many other problems that peri menopause had kindly given me.

I also cut back on coffee and boosted my supplements with zinc, and vitamin B complex

I'm haven't gained weight but I don't find it easy to lose like I used to.

I have been on Femoston 1/10 tablets for a year now. My main symptoms that floored me were brain fog and anxiety. Also, lack of sleep at night.
I still have some brain fog but my anxiety has lessened and I sleep better at night. My weight is fine.
