Ladies. Looking for advice ahead of my first appointment at the meno clinic.
I am 43. Been suffering horrifically for 2 years. Extreme dizziness, nausea, feeling vile. Tried prog only pill. Got appetite back, but was suffering with bad mood swings and low mood. 3 months ago I opted to try combined pill. I thought it was helping, but I'm now getting daily migraines. I just can't go on like this.
So, I am assuming that hrt might be my better option and am now open to it. After 2 years of hell, I'm keen to avoid being given the 'standard' options and having to work my way through them with possibly more side affects 🤷♀️.
So, I'm thinking if the pill is giving me headaches, it could be the daily fluctuation of estrogen going in then metabolising through my body. So maybe patch better???
I got on OK with prog only pill, but I realise it is not licensed for hrt. Is there a similar prog option???
I know you ladies have a lot of information. I'm just feeling overwhelmed.. Plus headachy!!!
