I've not had a period in about 4 years, no hot sweats for about 3 years, been on Kilovance for about 18 months and everything is jogging along nicely. I've not felt like killing any one for about 12 months and ive not cried at the drop of the hat for about the same length of time.

Then suddenly, the last few days, I'm tearful, miserable, really down and tonight I've had the horrible sweats.

what can be going on? I'm 52 if its relevant at all. Fit and healthy.

TIA

The simple answer is you may need more estrogen. Are you on 1mg Kliovance? If so, you might need 2mgs dose.

thanks Queen. Should I ask for a test re the oestrogen levels then?

jess975 So you’re all right then aren’t you? 🙄

Get some blood tests OP, you may be having a final surge or it may be thyroid or something.

Jess it really isnt

QueenoftheNights · 16/10/2018 12:47

jess975- why have you come along to tell women it's all in their minds? How insulting, and wrong.

Have a look at Jess975's profile. She was a clinician with the NHS for many years. Quite a worrying stance she is taking Hmm

Where/How do you see profiles?

StairMonster · 17/10/2018 15:18

Tried clicking in the name, Nothing. Does it not work on phones (without app)?

QueenoftheNights · 17/10/2018 19:52

'A clinician in the NHS'- could mean anything at all! It's not on her profile, it's in a post she wrote on another thread.

She says she now lives in Hong Kong in her post here.

QueenoftheNights · 17/10/2018 19:54

Oh yes and it's in her profile too.

Means nothing- she could be anyone doing anything.

jess975's profile > "I am passionate about supporting people". Grin.
