Hi Fiona77.
Welcome to the forum.
I sailed through peri, didn't even realise, but then I had a lot going on a that time. It wasn't until I became post meno ( or nearly) when all my symptoms came out.
Thought I was dying, with some disease I'd got, felt so poorly. Also felt I was going mad.
Had a hard time excepting it was menopause because I didn't understand how hormones could cause so much trouble and make you feel so ill.
After starting on HRT, and switching and tweaking, I've settled on Femoston Conti. And I'm much better.
Remember though, it doesn't happen over night. It may take a bit to start kicking in and helping you feel better. Good luck. Keep posting. Let us know how your getting on.
Someone's always on to offer advice.
Hope they gave you progesterone too, you?ll need it if you still have your womb. As Dotty has already mentioned.
Xx.
