Hello all
I´m 55, last period 19 months ago. Saw the gynaecologist last week (first time since 2009) a young chap who suggested HRT, felt he was a bit fixed on my libido which is really not my priority. I wouldn´t say I´ve sailed through the meno but I´ve tried to keep fit, healthy etc. Other issues in life have kept my attention away from my health, which has maybe been a good thing. Night sweats, mood swings, etc I sort of ignored and got on with things, and took supplements. Now I´m on Tibolone and wondering what I´m doing. Up till last week I felt quite healthy and optimistic but feel so rubbish this week! Fuzzy head, tired, depressed, fatalistic. OK, I am only on day 5
but .... I have high cholestorol (8.9) but don´t take statins, prefer to try to control it myself. Family history of cancer (sister and aunt died of breast cancer, which is probably another reason why I subconsciously avoided the HRT route). What I want to know is, is this tibolone going to help in any way? I´ve read posts and it looks like I should give it 3 months. 3 months of feeling like this? Crikey. Anyone else out there who managed to be in denial for as long as I have and now feel that life has caught up with them?
