Hi, I'm new here.
I'm 46 and for the past year I've been having what I realise now are perimenopausal symptoms.
The worst part for my is the anxiety and mood swings. I've always been anxious but at present it's overwhelming, no motivation, endless worry, poor concentration, brain fog.
Other symptoms are aches, occasional night sweats, sore breasts, low sex drive, itchy skin, tinnitus.
I'm not sure which route to go down, whether I'm at the stage where I need HRT of whether antidepressants would be more beneficial.
Wondered if anyone has gone down the antidepressants route or whether HRT would settle my overactive mind!
Thank you
