Yes just keep taking the tablets even if your periods don't match up to the regime. When I first started I had a bleed at end of each pack for first 3 months then I missed a couple of bleeds then they appeared just as I finished white tabs oestrogen, but I felt good and GP said it didn't matter if I took a bleed or not. Just guve them a good try 3-6 months and note down how you felt when you wrote this post and in a few months you will see a difference, x

Thanks so much for your positivity Millykin....feeling very anxious just now....trying to sort housework out but feeling exhausted and panicky....have sat down to try n relax lol....did you feel more anxious beginning femoston? X

[Millykin]

I was in a terrible state like you. I posted a thread "look how far I have come" in personal experiances a few weeks ago itson pg 3 now. It's shows the frame of mind I was in last February 2 months before I started Femoston.
Then when I started Femoston it was sort of each week I began to feel a bit better. I'm now in a good place but do get odd blip. Nothing like before though I just didn't want to be here. You will get better but it does take time. Some days I just couldn't move but I tried to push myself, hard work it was! Keep posting and we are here to help x

Thanks Millykin, I remember reading your post and feeling hopeful about hrt.... Glad you're feeling so much better and I look forward to that too :-) xxx

Little steps.  I find that keeping busy works off the anxiety otherwise I dwell 

[TropicalVon69]

Thanks clkd....I think I may be overbusying myself.....its so hard to know what to do for the best.....taken a real dip again.....will be glad when oestrogen kicks in x

Eat, Girl! Eat 

It's awful, you have my sympathies 

[TropicalVon69]

Certainly feel better after a big meal clkd but not had much of an appetite when feeling like the last few days and the horrible thoughts make me want to wither away.....however it is night time and after tea of KFC I feel a bit better....long may it last :-)  xxx

I have been eating lots of fruit, grapes, apples ect easy to pick at. I am trying telling myself ''its only hormones' and trying to do the 'floating' thru the anxiety and it has worked today. For the irrational thoughts I now question them, ask myself are they true and find a more balanced answer. I often have the thought that my husband doesn't love me !! it comes out of the blue and I now just reason with myself with a more balanced answer which is in fact the true one. Hard but it does help xx

KFC wouldn't be my choice when feeling delicate  ………. more likely to graze on dried fruits, nuts, Dextrose tablets  but do try eating before you feel hungry.

[TropicalVon69]

I used to cook such a lot clkd and make balanced and healthy meals....of late it was exhausting and last night and the past few nights it has been takeaway....I don't feel good about it esp for my children but  hey ho....hopefully we will get back on track.....I am struggling with kids just now to get my older daughter to go to school and get my youngest to do anything....so difficult when you feel in chaos yourself.....hopefully more balanced and happier times ahead x

It's OK as a treat and 1 can share ……. we go to our local chippy every 2/3 weeks and share a portion ……… and since the shop changed hands the chips are crispier 

Why won't you daughter go to School?

Hopefully your Hrt will kick in soon. If it helps I had Hateful feelings today So I spent 10 mins dancing, it helped. Eating little and often helps and protein is a must. I hope you are easier this afternoon xx

TV69 - I'm speaking from a position of ignorance here but is it possible for you to take your hormonal treatment in a "continuous" way for a few months so that your hormone levels are constant, your cycle stops, and you don't get a bleed? You'd need to speak to your GP about it but it might get you on a more even keel for a while so that you can catch your breath. If younger women can take the pill in this way so that they can go travelling or train for sports events etc without the hassle of periods surely, with supervision, it should be OK for someone like you who really needs a break from chaotic hormones... I hope you feel better soon. PS I agree completely with the above advice to eat enough - I feel terrible if I don't eat enough or late - crashing mood, self-pitying, cold, knackered, irritable and a whole pile of other less-than-endearing qualities! Sod the big bum!
