Had a hysterectomy 1.5 yrs ago due to fibroids, profuse bleeding, and severe anemia. And then my hormones spiraled into terrible emotional changes and mood dysregulation.

Thanks for this. I suffered a number of issues, some painful, but l never got any proper treatment or help from *any* doctor l went to. But here in this area it is not unusual to remain untreated if you are not in the right income or job. I am now post-menopausal at 61, however, I have suffered from an incredibly painful bladder. EVERY single day it feels like there is a little sharp knife cutting inside my bladder & tract. It can be aching even when l am not urinating! Now of course covid is used as an even better excuse for doctors to do nothing, no matter my income! I am angey & fed up, this started in *spring of 2018* !!!😡 3 1/2 years of daily pain, all day long.🇨🇦

The problem is though is that all doctors know how to do is offer an SSRI or SNRI, HRT or Birth Control. None of which I can have. I stopped my SSRI 5 years ago and have been in PAWS ever since (post acute withdrawal syndrome) (which, go figure, most doctors don't recognize as a thing to begin with..) Now a couple weeks ago my doc told me that I'm in early perimenopause (I'm 35) which the peri symptoms are so similar to the PAWS symptoms so its impossible to tell which is which. I suffer from daily tension headaches for 5 years, bouts of anxiety/panic, insomnia, chronic muscle tension in my neck, shoulders, back and hips, painful lumpy breasts a couple weeks before my period (my doc said she believes i have fibrocystic breasts) now I've started getting a racing heart randomly in the mornings as soon as I stand up, throughout the day here and there, and some evenings too. I am exhausted and I'm only 35. I will never go on another SSRI or SNRI if you literally paid me. And birth control is too risky for me as I'm 35 and smoke. (Which I'm planning on quitting in the new year) So I don't know what to do about all of this. I'm a single mom, no family (my mom just suddenly passed recently and I have no siblings or other relatives at all), no car and I homeschool. I feel like giving up but I can't because of my child. I'm just ranting and letting a little steam out through my thumbs. If anyone has any advice at all I'm open to hear it and appreciate it as well. Xo

Hi Cintia Sometimes you have to be really persistent with the doctor or you could take along a friend or relative for extra support. Have a list of everything that you want discussed then get your friend to write down everything the doctor says; that often gets results! Best Wishes Eileen

I lost a considerable amount of blood during perimenopause and became Severely anemic. I was treated with an iron supplement which helped. But my body seemed to defy hormone therapy to stop the scary bleeding. So, what cured me was a low sodium diet. It worked like magic.

Menopause sucks!!! Dealing with the night sweats (only it's not just at night time when I'm in bed - i have these through the day. Usually when I'm out in public places a sudden hot rush will start at my midriff rising to my head where I'm burning hot and sweat running down my face and neck ruining my hair cos its drenched with sweat). Don't get me started on the mood swings I'm experiencing. If I'm not in floods of tears (over the silliest things) I'm 0 to 100 with rage and anger very embarrassing and draining having to apologize for my outbursts of sudden crying or anger and aggressive behavior . I'm not having heavy periods for days on end, at random times throughout the month (after having the merina iud inserted) so that's one less thing to worry about. I have been going through menopause the last few years now but will be glad when it's done and I'm not the moody temperamental monster I've turned into. Please tell me there's light at the end of this nightmare. Ladies any advice or tips on what you found helpful with the symptoms of menopause would be appreciated. TIA

Hi Jennifer If you are in the UK or Ireland you could try the sage tablets, Menoforce, as these are specifically for flushes and sweats and a high magnesium supplement which is good for mood. You may also benefit from some acupuncture as this can help to balance the hormones and calm the nervous system. Best Wishes Eileen

Magnesium has so many benefits ! Dr. Axe here on KZbin has a video on the benefits of magnesium. Amd you can always do more research on the internet as well. And regarding caffeine it can actually cause anxiety in some people. Am kinda sensitive to caffeine , I noticed when I would have to much coffee I will get anxious! Caffeine makes anxiety worse. And of course our thoughts it's very important to pay close attention to what thoughts we entertain. Praying/ talking to Jesus and hearing what He has to say to us is a blessing . He cares for us and we matter to Him. You are all unique one of a kinda. So be You because no one else can be you only YOU. Blessings to you all. You are of value.

Is it normal? I am 43yrs old and all menopausal symptoms are present. Plus i am always dizzy. 😭
@AvogelCoUk3 жыл бұрын
Hi Miss Kurdapya Although prolonged periods are common on the approach to the menopause, they are not good for you and may cause anaemia. This in turn may cause fatigue, dizziness, low mood/anxiety so it is wise to get your iron levels tested by your doctor just in case you need some medication. Do also mention the blood clots, although these are common too we do advice that you let your doctor know. Best Wishes Eileen

Mild earache and throat (thyroid) pain along with or while I have mild cramps 😬 could that be part of this process. I am 47 and am having these symptoms off and on and still have my menstrual cycle, it’s become irregular but every month still and very heavy. Can thyroid issues come up and inner ear pain? Please help!
@AvogelCoUk3 жыл бұрын
Hi Celia Yes, thyroid issues are really common in the menopause but, unfortunately, often overlooked as a menopause symptom. If you are not on any thyroid medication, you may find taking a kelp supplement can be beneficial. Cramps can often be sorted quickly with a magnesium supplement, approx 200mg twice a day and earache may be helped with Plantago. www.avogel.co.uk/herbal-remedies/sea-kelp/ www.avogel.co.uk/herbal-remedies/plantago-lanceolata/ Best Wishes Eileen

The best treatment is replacing the hormones you are losing. Just like you would replace thyroxin if your thyroid stops working properly. Oestrogen is has far more benefits than curing only hot flushes - it also prevents heart disease, osteoporosis, brain fog, dementia, depression, diabetes, lack of sleep
