Hi ladies,
Iv been to see a gynaecologist......yaaaaaa!!!
Anyway, she suggested I try Tibolone HRT. Never heard of it and I have taken my first tablet today!
Anyone on this HRT?

If you put Tibolone in the search box you will bring up any posts on this HRT. It's a synthetic preparation.
It is good for post menopausal women who have lost their libido as it mimics testosterone. https://patient.info/medicine/tibolone-tablets-livial

Hi that's great news, I think it's also under the name Livial xx

Thanks ladies......Iv had a read of the link and I can see there's side effects etc and risks but I'm willing to take it for 3 months just to see how different I would feel as at the moment I have little quality of life due to my menopausal symptoms, I also have fibroids and an under active thyroid.
Some days I struggle to get out of bed with sore joints. I have insomnia, anxiety, vaginal atrophy, fatigue, dry eyes, low mood, dry skin and no libido whatsoever!! This has been a long road as I started peri meno at 45 and now I'm 51 and post meno but the symptoms are worse!!

I try not to read side effects and reviews (I normally end up in the end mind) as everyone is different.
May just be what you need.
Poor you sounds like you have a lot of symptoms going on which in its self is draining.
I've just started a new one today so cheers to us 🍷🍷xxx
