Hello,
I am new to this site, 53 years of age and not had a period for over 3 years and that was also the last time I actually was able to sleep through the night !
Suffered terribly with the menopause initially, but the mood swings lifted only to be replaced with hot flushes and brain fog.
Not being able to sleep for me, was the biggest issue so decided to see my GP 6 weeks ago who prescribed Nuvelle continous, and this week I have actually slept through, no waking up, just 7 hours solid sleep I feel amazing.
However I have had terrible period pains and had a very heavy period which surprised me as I thought the point of taking the continous was so that I did not have a period , I also have a very distended stomach that makes me look pregnant !
I am on a very low dose of the combined tablet but have been advised that patches are the way to go ?
Not spoken to my GP yet but have any of you lovely ladies had experience of Nuvelle, would love to hear your thoughts ?
Many thanks for your time
Sue
