Wine makes you feel like shit in peri?

[Periwinehell]

Have always loved wine - red or white. However, I’m now almost 47, peri, and have noticed it makes me feel utter shite the next day.

I don’t drink much these days as it is, my husband and I tend to share a bottle on a weekend night, so max half a bottle, which is not far over a large glass.

but I feel absolutely awful the next day.

is this happening to anyone else? It’s utter shite!!! Does it go back the other way once through the menopause?

Crap wine makes me feel utterly god awful now I’m peri. I drank 3 glasses of a shitty Zinfandel and was sick as a dog. I can however still drink good quality wine with no ill effects.

look up histamine intolerance. it can increase this and as women get older it’s more of an issue. i’ve switched to vodka !

You could just take an anti histamine tho

Op I'm post menopausal and alcohol makes me feel like shite unfortunately. Sorry!!

I'm a lager drinker, but these days I'm a two pints then home, in bed by ten sort. Same age as you @Periwinehell . I just can't tolerate it anymore.

Can’t drink white / red wine anymore either but I find Rose and Prosecco a bit more tolerable and hangovers better

Does it go back the other way once through the menopause?

Omg if only!! I'm 53 and can only drink one small glass now. The worse thing is the acid reflux. Since peri started I'm taking omeprazole daily. Gaviscon doesn't cut it.

One thing i would say though is that there might be something in it when you say does it reverse when you've gone thru menopause as my m-in-l drinks like a trooper with apparently no ill effects!!😆

Yep. Two vodka and tonics is my limit these days. Anymore than that and I'm hungover the next day.😕

Same here but I have discovered that I can drink beer and (hard cringe) organic wine also seems fine.

If I have any alcohol ( but especially wine)in the evening I get an almost instant headache that lasts all through the night (keeps me awake) and well into the next day. If I have a drink earlier in the day this doesn’t seem to happen.
