Quick update, I moved from the contraceptive pill to Ellese Duet Conti 3 months ago, which stopped the hot flushes but I started to get bad stomach aches and constipation. I've halved my pill (I'm on the 2mg) and my stomach is fine, minor hot flushes and I'm sleeping well for me - my sleep has never been great.
I am so so tired!
I go to bed before 10, get to sleep easily, wake up at 4 for a pee and get back to sleep by half 4. I'm awake at half 6 and up by 7. I'm getting a good solid 6 hours of sleep then another 2 on school days. On weekends if I can I'll go back to bed at 9 until 11 and it's a rare day I can get through without a nap.
Does the tiredness stop? I have so much to do and no energy to do it!
Oh, I'm 48, haven't had a period in a couple of years.
