 I'm new here and finding it very helpful especially all the discussions.

On that note, is anyone else's relationship seem to be breaking down due to the change in moods?

I'm supposed to be getting married in October but I'm having second thoughts as we are just not getting on lately. I've noticed that I'm getting very irritable, to the point that my other half has stopped talking to me as he said it's easier not to talk so that I don't bit his head off  I'm due to start HRT on Monday so hopefully my mood will start to improve....

Yep.  It is a common theme during The Change.

Firstly print off the 'hints to husbands' and hand over.  Some ladies find keeping a mood/food/symptom diary useful to chart progress. 

Sometimes having a 'buzz' word - the other half calls it as he ducks ;-).  Choose the word between you, to diffuse the situation.  I have a raging temper which I have to contain, but DH knows it's not (usually) his fault. 

Sit down and have that talk.  Hormones cause upheaval, often without warning. 

What HRT has been recommended?  Browse round, make notes -

So sorry to hear this but clkd is right,it's the norm, I couldn't get enough of my OH a couple of years ago but now? I definitely need my own space, I seriously thought I'd fallen out of love with him at one point,it's just about managing your feelings,be open and honest with him and definitely let him  read that hints for husbands. Hopefully the hrt will help,let us know
