Hello all,
After a lot of trial and error I finally and excitedly got the Mirena fitted as other forms of progesterone didn't work for me. Terrible reaction.
I was also given lenzetto spray/estrogen spray which I used very briefly alone before having the IUS fitted. No reaction to that so I know it's definitely not the oestrogen, because after having the Mirena fitted 5 days ago, I've had palpitations, shortness of breath, chest tightness, dizziness, nausea, diarrhea and generally feeling like a zombie.
So upset and fed up. I had a strong feeling this regimen would be the holy grail of hrt and I could call the search off, especially since other progesterones didn't work so well for me.
I'm not sure now whether to stick with it and maybe up 1 dose of the lenzetto spray to two doses? To counteract or act as a buffer to these horrible side effects
Can't get through to any of the my fav female doctors who seem clued up about the menopause.
Or I don't know maybe I should have the IUS removed and risk cancer using just the estrogen spray on its own, which was great by the way. I want my life back.
I'm peri and 44 years old. I really want to enjoy my life now, I've suffered for too long
Is anyone on the same regimen who could offer great advice on what I can do next? I'm just so so confused and dilapidated from it all. I ask myself many times why we are cursed with menopause. It's a curse.
