Does anyone get a sour taste or metalic taste in their mouth?

This has started a couple of weeks ago.

[Sgtvhilts]

Yep,
Had it for years.  Dental all okay, gums okay.  Never thought about it in terms of meno, but hey ho most things i have been suffering with have calmed down since HRT, and i did't realted them to meno until they went.
I guess the huge 'dry up' of meno would effect the mouth/taste as well.
I don't really notice it as much; either i have got used to it or it had got better.
Nothing surprises me anymore with this bod of mine.

Yes I get it on and off. Dentist says my gums are receding too. Joy.x

I often get a metallic taste but i have Haemochromatosis, which is oo much iron could be connected, but not necessarily, sometimes tastes like blood
I had bells palsy a few years ago and got that taste then

[Booroo]

Yes I do and it's a pain in neck also dry mouth
Makes me on edge as gp said could be bit of acid but I don't think it is am on short term gaviscon and ranitidine as I get regurgitate at times depends what I eat and me endoscopy was all good and normal.
Sooo tricky to reassure myself I'm ok and it's the peri xx

Hello ladies.

I haven't had this problem with the menopause but in the early stages of my first pregnancy I noticed a metallic taste  in my mouth.  It resolved quite quickly as I recall ( we're talking a long time ago, my daughter is now thirty ) but it was definitely caused by changing hormones.

Hope this helps and wishing you all well.
