Fluoxetine
« on: February 11, 2022, 10:38:46 AM »

Been prescribe fluoxetine for post meno problems.  Was on HRT 10 years after early meno. Took off 5 years ago. Been a rubbish time! Asked about going back on but because I have high blood pressure high cholesterol and been off it so long dr felt it was safer to go this route. Any  of you ladies on this ? If so how you going ? Only been three days for me but last night was first night in years I didn’t have night sweats.🤞

Your GP should have referred you to a menopause specialist.  There are lots of ways of delivering HRT and no one needs to suffer.  ? patches ?

MayB keep a mood/food/symptom diary.  To chart progress.

This particular AD can ease hot flushes, let us know how you get on.
