Peri menopause supplements

I have started experiencing peri symptoms particularly low mood, aching joints, headaches and feeling hot at night with changing levels of this throughout the month, I'm 46. I am on the mini pill and thought I would try some supplements before HRT (Health and Her and Starpowa Menobalance). However, on both occasions I've started getting really sore breasts and been very weepy and down to the point I haven't got past a week with either. Does anyone have experience of this and think it might be worth persevering? Many thanks Smile

I know I'm too late to the party but just wanted to chime in. I didn’t want to jump straight to HRT either, so I started looking into plant-based stuff. What helped me personally was smooth as silk plus (which is packed with lots f omega7 + omega 3 and d3). It’s from femininity and it's working awesome for dryness and mood support. Took a couple weeks but the weepiness mellowed out and my joints weren’t killing me every morning. No weird side effects either, which was huge for me.
