Sorry this is a few months late, but I was searching for posts on allergies when I came across yours. I have always had allergies to certain things since I was little, but yes, in the past month or so, I seem to have developed new allergic reactions that I didn't have before. I reacted to a hair conditioner, I have woken up with puffy itchy hives under my eyes, another time a rash below was bra line, a few days later a rash on my belly from the band of my jeans, now a reaction to my faux leather watchband.
I unfortunately don't have any answers, I know that allergies can come out of nowhere but I do wonder if it menopause related. I will have to read up on this. I hope you found a solution and if you did, please share! :)

Hi I was searching ‘allergies’ and found this post, I’m currently experiencing a huge rise in allergies. Very itchy red swollen juicy eyes, feels like there’s fine grain sand in them all the time, blocked nose, dry mouth, headach, sore neck etc. it’s driving me insane. I’ve been taking antihistamines but they don’t seem to be working anymore. I’m on two pumps of estrogel and Utrogestan.
Does anyone know if an increase in estrogel is also increases histamine intolerance?
Also wondering if anyone has had constant allergies that have been greatly improved by adding testosterone to the mix?
Any help would be appreciated. Feeling so fed up.
