Hi everyone :) Just checking in, got lots of questions, lots to say, and lots to learn, so will do a longer post later. I have had a quick read through some posts and i feel i will get a lot of answers from this forum, but just one quickie, has anyones eyes gotten noticeably worse in a short space of time?? I suppose this is question 1! ;D
TIA and looking forward to hearing from you all :)

Yep mine did too. Drier as well. I wear contacts for distance so had to get eye drops and drinking more water helped. I now need reading glasses too. Which I continually leave in forgotten places. Now I know why they sell them in multi packs!

Lol! It's not until i started researching that i started to put things together :)

As oestrogen levels dry the body may become dry - inside and out. Do read the 'bladder issues' and 'vaginal atrophy' threads ;-). Make notes.
:welcomemm:

To be fair, it's the opposite at the moment, can't get enough of it :-\
Starting to think i might be in the minority because i like the perimenopause, i've never felt as good since my teens. I laugh more and care less, i feel full of energy and feel the need to have a good walk everyday, i need to get my eating and drinking a lot more healthier but waiting till after xmas.
So if anyone else feels the same, let me know.

Enjoy!

Hi Vikki
Yes, my peri was much like that. I thought it was because I'd come out of an abusive marriage (well, thats probably part of it), but I felt good, and my libido was sky high.
As for glasses, I started to need them for reading from age 40, but there again, I work in computers. They got worse and worse, but seem to have plateaued now, thank goodness

Hi there I’m a newbie, I’ve been using evorel sequel for the last month and a half. I’ve noticed I found of the two different patches, the second set more difficult to deal with, but better this second month than the first one. My boobs are now huge, like when I was pregnant, hopefully that will settle. A surprising thing I’ve noticed today is that before my face had lots of peach fuzz but this is so much less than before. Anyone got any advice? Or know when I might see my feet again?!

Hi swimmum, if you go back to new members main page and repost, you will get more replies as a new thread :) xx

It's OK - we've found you ;)
I have lots of fuzz on my cheeks, slightly out of sight unless I turn my head into funny positions with a large mirror ::). It's the black hairs that DH says he doesn't notice but Oh My!

;D
Good for you Teresa! I am married, not quite sure what hubby makes of it all, but he is smiling, so thats good! Lol!
I have always had a high libido, so now it can be off the chart ::) I just need to get back on track with healthy eating and exercise and i might feel like Wonder Woman!! ;D
Its very encouraging that this could last 10 years :D
