Tired of feeling like this

I am mid 40's
Been taking HRT since October.
Initially this made a huge difference to my aches & pains.
But they came back.
I have increased the oestrogen dose in the last month & now feel like I can't sleep properly & everything aches again. I also have very sore breasts.
I do feel calmer. So it's still helping my mood.
But I am just so unbelievably tired all the time & sick of aching joints.
I don't know what to do.

(Initially posted this in women's health - but then decided it's more suited here)

Sore breasts - b vits high strength
Aches and pains vit d3 high strength preferably Solgar

I expect you may need to try a different hrt if still tired.

You are welcome. Above all do keep monitoring and investigating. There are so many solutions and options.

I joined 'StuffThatWorks' site this week which is a menopausal solutions and strategies support forum. Very useful too.

Ooo sounds good thanks will sign up.

Am currently trying star flower oil for the sore breasts. Think it was recommended on here.
