Oh yes, the elusive sweet spot - still not there!!
I didn't get hot flushes either, but joint pain, in particular wrist pain, even holding a full kettle would give me a proper twinge. That did resolve with HRT, as well as mild dryness. Having recently moved from Femiston 1/10 to Estraderm patches I am really struggling; the jump up in oestrogen has left me jittery with palpitations and dizziness. I cut one in half with my GP's approval which seemed fine until I added in 2 x utro, and i felt like I was wading through treacle. I'm guessing I'm somewhere in the middle. I wonder if I've still got enough of my own oestrogen going on at this particular time?
Hurdity I suspect I am already at menopause but am I right in thinking that they won't put you on a conti until you are 50?? I don't mind having a period at all, but other than dydrogesterone I do struggle with the progesterone phase.
Shannonplussed this is how I have been trying to measure things, by the small things which now aren't so bad as they were!! Unfortunately the flipping headaches aren't one of them.
