Hello Jow. Welcome to the forum. Are you certain you are menopausal? I was wondering if there could be another reason for the brain fog and tiredness.

Hi!  How is your diet overall as well as your fluid intake?

Do U exercise?  How is your sleep pattern?  I often feel hung over due to the medication I take.  Also with storms for a couple of nights, my sleep has been broken.

Why can't you take HRT?  There are so many methods of delivery these days.

Some find that keeping a mood/food/symptom diary of use.  Browse round.

You don't say how old you are but I know as we age tiredness, brain fog is one of the many symptoms of getting old.
Are you taking vitamin supplements, I don't mean multivitamins but a single dose of whatever vitamin you may need.

My vitamin intake has grown over the last couple of years and I feel better for it. I am not on systemic HRT.
