Ladies

Thank you 😘

🤔🤔 ... Was convinced was tibilone ...will have  To see how I go

Blackeygray ... Have you had no side effects at all ?


No sickness nothing ?

Honest could have sworn was the tibilone


So hoping this feeling goes pretty rapid


I know it's not a virus as I'm a nurse and don't feel ill ill just weird 😩


Thanks ladies I'm so interested how you all get on X

No, not a sausage.  Nada.  I'm sorry to hear that you are. 

What I have felt is generally better but this could be physiological as I'm just happy that I've been prescribed something around testosterone.

I've been using Estroil Pv for two weeks but think I'll continue it ? Along with tibilone ??

Thank you ALL of you 😘🙋😘

Ps .... Do any of you think k should have bloods taken re hormone levels ?

Know thyroid ok and lipids etc X

[Blakeygray]

My gp took my blood pressure before prescribing Tibolone (it was fine) but  I have to go back for a  blood test (for everything she said) to see where  my levels are.

[Dancinggirl]

Sometimes blood tests are useful but this needs to be done 4-6 weeks after treatment has started.
If it's working then you should actually know, as flushes should have reduced or stopped. I was certainly sleeping really well after about a week!!  DG x

[Hurdity]

Blakeygray - what blood tests have been suggested? I'm not sure how Tibolone affects your actual hormone levels anyway - surely it would not give a true reading?

Hi Suzanne 1967. How are you feeling today?  I am on day 5 of starting Tibolone and it seems to have heightened the tension/irritability/anxiety, hot flushes and body aches I have been feeling in the last few months. I am in menopause and haven't had a period for over a year so my gynaecologist prescribed Tibolone back in August and I've only just plucked up the courage to start taking them. I felt quite good on the second day but have been feeling worse the last couple of days. I have been taking half of the 2.5mg as I'm usually quite sensitive to tablets. I'm guessing it's my body getting used to the tablet and my hormones levelling  out but I'don't be interested in hearing any other experiences. I'm going to stick with them for a couple of months and hope that this passes. Thanks for posting x

Well I've never had anything measured,  tested or prescribed since my hysterectomy 14 yrs ago. My gp  said she wanted to test all my levels including  hormones and iron

DAY 7 of tibilone 2.5 mgs

Jules53 hi 🤗

Phew .... Took my tibilone 2.5 at 7 last night was like 😳😳😳😳 but eventually got off felt sooooo sick again but I've had no headaches

I do feel agitated restless twitchy

Today it took me 2 hours to compose an email and attachments that usually j can Do in ten mins 😁 Just losing my train of thought

Not as many flushes  it's a different feeling can't explain it but restless agitated unsettled

I don't feel as anxious

but just feel rubbish but I must saY  I THINK I feel better than dat 1-2-3-4 -5 so maybe taking at 7 pm is better ? I'll have to see how I go tonight


I listen to mindfulness a lot gave done got months an AP called calm it helps me ( try it )


I was On the phone  to a colleague and I was struggling with even holding a sentence together !!! Flipping Eck 🙄🙄

Anyway onwards and upwards I'll continue see what tonight and tomorrow bring

Scand and biopsies Thursday xxx

Sending love to all you ladies 😘🙋💞

[Jules53]

Hi Suzanne. Hope you're feeling better today!   I am on day 6 and started the day feeling a lot calmer but as the day went on my whole body started aching and I've had pains in my arms. The anxiety came back this afternoon but I think that's because we went to a funeral and I  felt pretty tense.  Anyway, I went to yoga this evening and that really helped to calm me  down. I take my tablet at lunchtime so will carry on taking it then to see how it goes. I only take half of the 2.5 mg tablet.

Hope you're doing OK x

[Jules53]

Hi Suzanne.  Glad you're starting to feel better. Day 7 for me and I started the day feeling a bit better. Still had pains in my arms but felt a lot calmer.  I went to work and mid morning the anxiety kicked in big time and didn'the subside until mid afternoon! TIght  chest and a feeling of dread😢

When I got honest I did some meditation/mindfulness from a DVD I've  got and I started to feel much calmer and have been out for the evening with friends! 😊

I'might sure the anxiety is my hormones trying to sort themselves out and am trying to stay positive and get through it. I'll let you know how day 8 goes.

Good luck for tomorrow.  Hope all goes well!❤💙💛💜

Did your tick on anxiety mean Tibolone is helping it ?
Hope so
