Hi
I have been post menopause for approx 3 years I am 44 and as advised by doctor started HRT approx 18 months ago. I am now on my 3rd lot of tablets and thought I had got the right ones until a couple of weeks ago.
To cut a long story short I have tried the following:
Premque
Prempak C
Elleste Duet conti 2mg
I suffered really bad on the first 2 especially Prempak these made me feel terrible, was tired all the time,bloated couldn't concentrate then was prescribed Elleste Duet conti - I have been on these now for approx 3 months and although I felt well to start with I feel I am getting the same symptoms again, feel really tired, bloated, irritable, moody, and can't even string a sentence together I forget the most simple things. As I am only 44 and work full time and am also studying I am finding it a real struggle.
Has anyone else had these experiences or can anyone please offer any advice.
I have seen 2 doctors 1 says I should continue with HRT as I am classed as young and have had an early menopause the other said that I am at the right age for menopause and don't necessarily need HRT - This doctor is however in her late 20's so lets see if she changes her opinion when she is in the menopause and can't remember what day it is when she wakes up!!
Any comments would be really helpful, I am at my wits end don't know what to do
