Just wondering if anyone takes any vitamins to help with symptoms?

Vitamins do not help menopausal symptoms. (If they did, wouldn't drs tell us to take them?) A healthy diet helps, but you should have that anyway for all kinds of reasons.

What symptoms are bothering you?

Hair l oss and tiredness are classic peri symptoms. If you have high testosterone have you though about HRT to counteract it and help your symptoms?
