I've been same all blood test fine I'm already on hrt think I need more. I've just started Avogel menopause support supplements to see if their help. Magnesium and fish oils did nothing.

BTW Abdominal pain is possible during menopause?

[@carmencruz1182]

I started perimenopause in my late forties. I experienced palpitations which led calling an ambulance bc I thought I was gonna die lol..but survived thank God.. everything seemed to be fine until…. Now, in my mid-sixties, believe or not, I am going through menopause.. which of course blew me away with hot flushes, knee pain which btw had lessen thanks to castor oil and cayenne pepper. I also mix yoga with light weights and beginning to feel much better. So ladies, wake up as this no easy task..dance along the way as it’ll help immensely in the long road ahead. Blessings 😊

[@sandratjauw8709]

Also Castor oil as a rubbing oil is excellent and sprinkle a little bit of Cayenne pepper on food and soups, as desired. 🙏🏻💐

Thank you Dr. Aileen ; very interesting. I recognise some of the symptoms you have mentioned. Joint pain, I use magnesium, massage the ligaments around the knees/at the back of the knees with coconut-oil, change my diet ( feeling 80% full, not more!!), enough water, Vit D/at this moment enjoying the sun, enough rest/sleep, reading the Bible/praying, e. o. A few year now, NO LEGS PAINS!! GOD BLESS YOU!!, for❤❤ helping lots of women. 🙏🏻

Oh gosh Eileen where to begin. I began perimenopause at 45 I am 47 now. Lots of pain my shoulders, upper back and front chest. X ray showed nothing. My doctor did say I had costochondritis which gets very painful. I stretch and exercise to help but it helps only a bit. There are days where my body is so stressed the pain is so bad I cry. I wake up with upper back pain too not sure if it’s my pillow or what. Neck pain too that radiates to my ear and head. I’m taking magnesium 400mg, vitamin d, fish oil, glucosamine but I feel like the joint pain hasn’t gotten better. I don’t know what I’m missing? Bless you Eileen for keeping us informed. ❤Your videos have helped me greatly to ease anxiety too. What a horrible transition we go through. 😢

[@hazaraudi7488]

I used to wake up with upper and middle backpain every single day for about 1.5 to 2 years. I would wake up around 3 or 4 am and sit up in bed and fall asleep that way, as lying down for hours seemed for some reason to cause the pain. When I started walking at least 10,000 steps a day the pain magically disappeared! It's been almost 2 years since the pain has gone. Try walking or exercising, might work for you too.

[@AvogelCoUk]

Hi Aideen A really interesting book I am reading at the moment is called Thriving Beyond Fifty by Will Harlow and he offers very simple exercises to do to alleviate joint and muscle pain so worth checking out, you canhear that you've found the vlogs helpful, thank you! Best Wishes Eileen

[@AvogelCoUk]

Wow, that's fantastic, thank you!

[@melisaeslinger6247]

Hi Eileen! 😊 I use collagen peptides powder and hyaluronic acid capsules for joint pain. In perimenopause I was just using collagen peptides, but since being in menopause I added Hyaluronic acid because the pain came back. The Hyaluronic acid helps with keeping my joints lubricated as well as providing lubrication to my eyes and other areas. I feel so much better taking them both.

Fantastic result Melisa! Best Wishes Eileen

@@sassysashy9577 Hi. My neck, chest, upper back and lumbar feel so tight and pain too. Palpitations, anxiety etc. How long do you have the pain? How old do you start to get it? Perimenopause?

[@lisacroker3178]

Definitely get joint pain, problems with my left arm in the upper muscle and shoulder. Keep hydrated and try to do exercise but with the different aches and pains not easy. Now been told by my dentist my gums are receding. Menopause is really challenging. Hope I can get some relief out the other side?

[@AvogelCoUk]

Hi Lisa You may find a combination of CoQ10 and a Sea Buckthorn oil capsule can help with the gums. Magnesium and Devil's Claw may be helpful for the joints and muscles and good to eahr that you stay hydrated! Many women do feel better once the hormones have settled down! Best Wishes Eileen

Thanks for the tips. Pain in the morning is really tough. Also pain in my hips. I’ve been trying to do exercises to open up my hips and make walking easier. I’m trying to improve my sleep quality and quantity as well.

There's a great book that you may find helpful from Amazon Flourishing over 50 by Will Harlow, there's lots of easy exercises to help with most joint issues! Best Wishes Eileen

That fatuous bit below my thumb has become painful like a cramp. I have not figured out what to do yet.

Hi Pattycake You could try an Arnica cream or gel as this can often help with joint or muscle pain www.avogel.co.uk/herbal-remedies/arnica-gel-atrogel/ Best Wishes Eileen
