Hi everyone! I live in the US and been having very bad year with mood swings, severe anxiety and hot flashes, night sweats and general periods of emotional ups and downs. My GP will not prescribe me and hormone or Birthcontrol. I had a consult with a clinician at planned parenthood and she took my info and prescribed me " Lyza" or NORETHINDRONE tablets to be taken 1x a day.
I take ativan and zoloft are the only meds I take. Im asking the community what experience have they had with this type of pill and what should I expect.Im worried about my mental status of taking it and causing worse symptoms. I am 47 and this has been going on for about 4 years now or so. In the last 9 months it has progressed and gotten worse over time. My periods are getting more closer together about every 15 days or so for the last 2 months. I feel very emotional and the hot flashes are pretty much a daily thing. My weight over the last year has decreased alot and Im only 5-2 !! Any advice would be greatly appreciated. I have tried to ask my GP and others about what Im experiencing and feel lost. Why on some days I feel anxious and jittery and others fine emotional and others angry and fustrated. Its like my body isnt matching whats going on with what I want it to do... BTW my sex drive is GONE. Have none this has gotten more progressive in the last year. And can some explain what the cycles of my hormones are doing in the month. Like first estrogen then progesterone then ..im lost of how they cycle works or isnt working right now.
Thanks .. didnt mean to write a novel here..
