Hi all- hope you dont mind another to join the menopausal threads, have found alot of what Ive read very helpful and comforting! My periods have been behaving very randomly over the year, one probably every 3 months or so, and I have all the lovely symptoms of night sweats, lack of sleep, irritability, like being premenstrual all the time - what a cruel trick to play on women, I say.
I have a history of very heavy periods and have had several gynae ops, plus high blood pressure, so am considering the HRT patch route - is anyone out there using them and can you explain how they work and if they suit you? Don'treally want to take tablet form and ideally not have any more bleeds, so would this be the right route. Don't feel I am coping that well naturally, so need some advice from those in the know ( my GP is very young and looks at me as if I'm from another planet sometimes!). Thanks :)
