Hi
I am new to the forum.
I am 54 years old and been on the mini pill for last 2 years to help with heavy periods and have just stopped taking following recent FSH tests which stated possible menopause symptoms - Serum follicle stimulating hormone level 113.8 u/l, Follicular 3.8 - 8.8, ovulatory 4.5 - 22.5, luteal 1.8 - 5.1.
My problems are tiredness which vary in degrees, along with intermittent small urine leakage and all other blood results are showing as normal. My GP has offered me HRT but I don't know if this is route I should go down or try vitamins first? Could me coming of the mini pill increase my FSH so my menopause symptoms could increase?
Any advice or suggestions welcome. Thank you.
