(Hi- I've written before about the emotional symptoms of peri and my inability to tolerate any form of prog!!)
I do have some physical symptoms of peri and, while they're not that bothersome, I'm curious as to what they mean.
Essentially, digestion is awry! During my period awoke in the early hours with crushing indigestion in chest area (can understand why people end up in A and E thinking heart attack!)
Around that time I had very painful trapped wind- again- wow! eye-watering pain!
Today- sorry about this- hard, dry stool- v difficult to move bowel!
All the glamorous symptoms and all prob linked.
Is it low oestrogen?- my gut feeling is that it is but a look on the internet and get a confusion of answers!
In a weird way I find physical symptoms quite helpful as they obvs point to something and if I can amend that, then my mood should be helped- it's just that i dont know what they're pointing to!
Thanks for any help
