I’m on week 5 of Femoston 1/10 and really thinking of giving up. I’ve started hrt for low mood, ibs, va, hormonal headaches, joint pain, pretty much all the symptoms other than flushes and nightsweats, I’m only 46 perhaps they’re yet to come!!
Also I’ve a depressive, negative and anxious personality with terrible PMT all my life, at the best of times and to say I’m struggling with the pandemic is an understatement
Femoston has left me with worse headaches and stomach problems than the ‘normal’ ones I normally suffer from, but then I’m aware that I’m psychologically worse than normal due to the pandemic and that’s making so many of my physical symptoms worse, so it’s difficult to know what’s hrt side effect and what’s stress induced
I just feel like right now isn’t a level playing field to compare my normal self to myself on hrt
So I’m torn I feel crap on them I feel crap off them, part of me wants to make today’s pill my last as I’m dreading the grey pill headaches that I got last month, but then I think what if I get through the whole first three months and everyone magically settles and I’m a new woman
Arghhh !!!!
