GP Practices don't often have a dedicated GP which makes continuation of care really difficult unless 1 is prepared to wait. There is the option at our surgery to see a Nurse Practitioner, in fact it seems that a lot of issues that GPs used to deal with have been passed to dedicated nursing staff who have undergone extra training.
The body rarely gets where it is hormonally unless there has been surgical intervention. Therefore replacement therapies can take 2-3 months B4 we notice that we actually feel better as it takes a while for the body to adjust. Try not to panic. Use the medication as prescribed. Try not to expect a sudden change, expect any feeling to be gradual. It's a bit like being hungry, we don't feel full immediately ;-).
U can't send PMs until you have posted a certain number of times, however - nowt is taboo on the Forum or OTT. We talk about most things, including menopause ;-).
Let us know how you get on. Make sure that you get into the sunshine ☀️ daily as well as taking plenty of 'me' time. Do U have hobbies? We talk about those here too
