Hi megnb.
I stopped my hrt (femoston conti ) last October, after being on it for around
6 months, couldn't put up with the headaches anymore, I managed to get through
Xmas, but then in January started to get symptoms again, really low mood, anxiety
through the roof, not sleeping that good, so I put myself back on it again, February 3rd,
And found I started to feel better after about a week or so.
I was also taking an antihistamine everyday to help with the anxiety, which now I've stopped,
due to dancinggirls advice, because they were giving me migraines.
Since I've stopped them the hrt is doing what it supposed to do , I still get low mood,
And headaches nearly everyday but I think they're getting better, and I feel better too.
I will carry on with the hrt for as long as I can. I just can't cope with everyday life
struggling like I was.
So yeah, if you feel like you want to stop, then stop.
You know your own body, and especially if you think it's not doing you any good.
I also have an autoimmune disease of the liver. ‘PBC'
But my gastroenterologist told me he was ok with me going on hrt.
As far as I know it hasn't caused any problem, but I'm due to see him next month.
Good luck hope everything goes good for you.
