First Post from a newbie
« on: October 24, 2022, 01:29:29 PM »

Hello all,
What a wonderful forum!
I am 55 and am still having periods, I believe my peri menopause started 7 years ago and I’ve had virtually all the symptoms.
I have tried three different types of HRT and much to my dismay I actually felt worse so gave up after a year.
I am currently using treatment for VA which I will post about in the correct section and see if any of you lovely ladies can help
Thank you

Hi!  We have several threads on VA and 'bladder issues'.

Answered your thread, spitting bricks at the GPs attitude.  Being young however, Her Turn Will Come  ;)

Hello JAM67 and welcome to the forum.


You are not alone with your symptoms and the support from this forum is second to none.

I believe that all menopause experiences are represented here, from ladies who can't take HRT to others who do but have problems along the way. It is certainly a very challenging time for all of us who come to MM.

Wishing you well.
