Hi ladies, before I start tweaking my HRT( currently 100Estradot( 5 weeks changed from Evorel) mirena coil and Testogel, has anyone heard of B6 for nausea? I read somewhere a while ago about it settling hormones? Don’t really want to change my HRT as so many symptoms have started to improve and are a lot more manageable xx

[CLKD]

Which part of the HRT is causing nausea?

[Flan747]

I presume the estrogen CLKD?

[CLKD]

Could it be too much oestrogen? 

[Flan747]

That was my first thought to be honest. Been on HRT for over 4 years now, I’m 54 so not sure if I need less?

[CLKD]

Hormonal nausea troubled me for many years, in the 10-14 days prior to a bleed.

Do U keep a mood/food/symptom diary to chart progress?  R U due a review soon?

U could also put the product names into the search box: individually : to read the threads about the HRT.  make notes ;-)

[Flan747]

Thank you. I gave up with diaries as I have the coil so no idea where I’m at. Review due January but they maybe with GP for the first time as my specialist has increased prices and it’s getting a bit silly!

In the mean time look at the Surgery web-site to see if there is a GP or Nurse Practitioner interested in womens health?  Or ask the Practice Manager as our Practice doesn't advertise our specific GP who would probably become overwhelmed !

Ginger is supposedly good for nausea, as R anti-travel sickness tablets.  Though these can cause drowsiness.   

Let us know how you get on.

[Flan747]

Bless you CLKD I’ve taken note of all of that, I have tried ginger a while back but will give that another go x

[CLKD]

How R U this morning?

[Flan747]

Morning. Fine this morning, usually starts mid morning then goes for a few hours then back at it’s worse around 4-5 pm x

[CLKD]

Awful.

B6 100% worked for my extreme morning sickness back in the day.  No idea about for menopause though

[Flan747]
