Hi all, It’s been over 10 years since my last period im now 57. I went through the menopause very easily. But the last 12 months I’ve have been suffering from vertigo/dizziness/lightheaded etc. I’ve tried everything had mri, cts etc all clear.
So, last year I went to the doctors re head sweats in the summer, he suggested hrt??? So I had some Femseven Conti Patches. As soon as I used the patches my dizziness lessened and for the first time in ages I was back to normal. But I hated the side effects of the patches too, tender breasts, bleeding, weight gain and feeling like an hormonal teenager! And did nothing for the head sweats!
As soon as I took the oatches off my dizziness returned, I’ve since tried a different patch but they have not helped with my dizziness at all.
Is it just coincidental? I don’t know what to do be dizzy or suffer the side effects. What I don’t understand is, if it is related, why after 10 years of being post menopausal. Is there a link between post menopausae and dizziness?
