Is this something that you need to do after a certain amount of time? As you get deeper into the trenches of peri? I started HRT 18 months ago, aged 45, after suffering a whole range of symptoms for a few years. Noticed a positive difference within a week and have generally had a very good experience. My worst symptom was the rage and low mood for anything up to 10 days before my period. HRT really helped but I feel like that particular symptom has worsened again. At my sister's wedding last week I was in tears and on the verge of telling her and my DH that my own marriage was over. Fast forward a week and sanity has returned. I'm on two pumps of oestragel, then progesterone tablets for 14 days of my cycle. Is it likely that will need to be increased at any point? Wondering if worsening of symptoms would be the reason for that. Only other change is that my periods have become super short and light in last few months so I feel like maybe I'm moving a little closer to menopause itself. For context, my mum went through menopause early-ish, all done with by 47.
