Title: Alcohol and HRT - your experiences
Post by: wuzzie on August 17, 2019, 08:32:14 AM

So, I was really looking forward to my ‘modest' one glass of wine last night.  This morning I'm feeling a bit more anxious, a few more heart flutters a little nauseous.  I've noticed my tolerance seems to be getting less and less.  Has anyone else experienced this?  I'm on Estrogel, Utrogestan and Tostran.  Am I going to have to become a boring teetotaller?   :(

There's another thread menopause & alcohol, might get more info/responses on that wuzzie!! I've stopped alcohol altogether as it wasn't worth it for me, no enjoyment in how it made me feel even after a small amount. x
