Morning all
Just wondering if someone could enlighten me, I'm not sure at what point of the menopause I'm at, I'm 53 (54 in January) and have been on Estradot 37.5 patches for not quite a year which I do believe have made me feel a little more human again.
When I was about 46 I started to feel very low, panic attacks, palpatations, tired, trouble sleeping, trouble with indigestion and now thinking about it I think that was the start of the menopause
I have the mirena coil and have had this for nearly 10 years, obviously getting it renewed when required - I also have fibroids
How do you know at what point you are at with the menopause when you have a coil plus on HRT
Last week I bled for one day, the last bleed before that was May time, I have an achy pain in my lower abdomen (like a dull period pain) so not sure what my body is doing
I don't want to go to the docs as I feel I'm always there at the minute with one thing or another which normally relates to the menopause - so if anyone can shed some light that would be very helpful
thank you
