I have recently started to suspect I may be perimenopausal/menopausal. Can anyone offer any advice and point me in the direction of what I can do/read/supplements to take, just any advice would be appreciated.
I used to be a brilliant sleeper, never woke during the night and now sleep is fitful, i especially seem to wake round 2-3am am wide awake and I can stay this way for up
to 2 hours before I drop off again.
I get hot sometimes during the night but no flushes during the day.
My periods are unchanged and every 28 days but my stomach bloats up so massively to the point I cannot see my feet
It's ridiculous
I get anxiety on and off, worrying about the most trivial of things, from being scared to leave the house fearing obscure accidents even to the point of sink holes opening up in the ground. This is significantly worse at night.
I'm 45, fairly healthy and exercise regularly. I'm not having any alcohol or sugar at the moment and don't take any medication.
I have no clue about HRT and feel a bit lost 😞
