Honestly, Apple if you are suffering this much just get HRT, try it for 6 months, if it helps, great, if not, stop.

Thankyou , I don’t really suffer with hot flushes , my main symptoms are hair loss and insomnia .. Tbh I’m a bit worried about the lack of oestrogen which protects the heart & bones

@JinglingHellsBells

I just wanted to say thank you. GP has prescribed me HRT patches, 2nd patch and I’m managing to sleep again. It feels such a relief!
