Hi Mum of 2
I have also just joined this forum.
I could have written your post myself. I have tried several HRT regimes but haven't found the right one yet. In the end I very reluctantly went on Mirtazpine to cope with the insomnia which also appeared out of nowhere, these have helped with my sleep and I am upping the dose from 15mg to 30mg to help with anxiety/depression (which I have never had until now) I havent had a period since 2016 and an now on Lenzetto spray with Utrogestan 100mg. Everyone keeps saying it will improve but it is so hard to keep going everyday when you have a job and family life to maintain.
I have now paid to see a local private menopause specialist and it appears that a big issue is not absorbing the gel/spray so I have upped this on her advice and wait to see how this works.
My anxiety is massive in the mornings to the point when I dont want to even open my eyes and throughout the day although it does setttle I am on constant flight or fight mode.
God knows if this well ever end, I used to think so but am now so ground down by it - still the alternative is to give up and what does that achieve.
Sending you lots of love
