Nearly 5 years post menopause.
Been on HRT 4 years (gel/patches/tablets/spray the lot!)
Patches suit me best, but I never feel completely well and balanced.
I was on the 75 patch for a long time, before symptoms of anxiety, the jitters, heart palpitations etc re surfaced. Increased to 100. All okay for about a month, then irritiability, rage, period pain and general feeling of meh.
I've tried to come off HRT, but anxiety goes through the roof and I cannot drive/think rationally etc. Plus bladder goes awol!
What does my body need? I am so confused and fear this is life forever!
I have a mirena for progesterone as utro wasn't being absorbed and bleeding was very problematic.
I feel this is consuming SO much head space right now.
