Perimenopause

Thebigblue

Hi, I am newly diagnosed at 49. Still trying to make sense of it all. Can I ask the ladies in the group what your experience of peri menopause has been. I have been on HRT for 5 years and despite this I feel like my symptoms are getting worse. I’m more and more sensitive to noise, smell and people. I’d be interested to hear about other’s experience please. Thanks

  • Yes this is me!! I think it’s only since I turned 40 that I noticed things change slowly and I became more sensitive to everything (I’m now 51) I have always stimmed to a certain level but that also has increased but I think that’s due to not giving a f**k any more about how people perceive me when I do it. I have also been on HRT for about 5 years and it has helped with physical symptoms of menopause such as achey joints and I still look young for my age (I am told!)

    I am perimenopause and notice that my symptoms are getting worse , and I am getting depressed. I am looking for a psychiatrist who could prescribe some medication as my GP has totally refused because ASD/ADHD treatment is not initiated by GPs , such treatments are only maintained by GPs once a psyciatrist has prescribed the medication !!
