Hi , I'm a new member also I have been per-meno from age 42, I'm now 48! I ended up with severe meno episode that I ended up having 3 months of work , GP kept telling me it was viral until I insisted I had my FSh tested so commenced citalapram & everol sequi , I stopped citalapram after a yr was ok on patches until I started experiencing migraines & Brest tenderness, GP changed me to Femston, I have been on it since Feb, now all my meno symptoms are full blown! Paid to see a specialist she has suggested Sandrena Gel 1g & utogestron 200mg befour my period- problem is I'm a nurse & work nights so this could make me feel sleepy all my alternative is marina coil & Sandrena , very reluctant to have coil! Feel absolutely desperate now as to what to do any advice please!!!
