I had worsening migraines that turned out to be a peri symptom. Same with brain fog and anxiety, forgetting things to do and places to go, children to collect and more.
I had a catastrophic memory issue that has lead to a big financial problem in our business and fallout that we are struggling with.
HRT has stopped the migraines and I'm way more able to focus and complete tasks than I was before.
The great thing about patches is that if you don't feel better you can just stop using them and that's it. You have nothing to lose by trying.
