Hi everyone
I'm in peri but having a lot of difficulty with PMS (insomnia, anxiety, irritability etc.) I went to see my GP about this and she suggested either Sertraline (to be taken continuously) or HRT. She seemed to prefer the Sertraline but said it was up to me to decide.
I've made a start with the Sertraline but it's making me feel awful - I know that's common with anti-depressants in the first instance, but I really don't think I can cope with the side effects: more anxiety, more insomnia, no appetite, pacing ...
I'm still having regular periods and don't have any hot flushes so I'm not sure if HRT would be better for the psychological/sleep problems I have.
Any advice welcome!
