Hi new member here who is struggling with peri symptoms and feels very stupid and confused and also a bit wary when researching HRT. I would love some advice please . I am almost 53 years old and have periods every month still. Sometimes twice a month and as of the past 6 weeks I have bled continuously. I have brain fog , insomnia , heart palpations with a jittery , wobbly feeling inside at times ( sounds crazy and I hate telling anyone) my hair is literally falling out when i shampoo and brush , hot flushes but also , weirdly , times when I am just so cold and can not heat up ( not sure if that is related or not) , tired and no energy , joint pain and stiffness , and anxiety. I also have fibroids and polyps . The bleeding now just feels like it will never stop and messaged GP who said it is hormonal and she could give me drugs to stop it. I asked about HRT and she told me to come here to menopause matters to find out . I dont know where to start . What will help best ? , will it make bleeding worse ? , I have a mirena coil which will be 5 years old this year will that be no use as HRT ? Will HRT affect the fibroids and polyps ? I will be extremly grateful for any advice .
