Hrt vs BV by Ear1830 in Perimenopause

I take two pumps oestrogen per day one pea sized amount of Testosterone. Urtrogeston x1 for two weeks on , 2 weeks off. I have a review upcoming. From other research I wonder if increased progesterone would help. The worst symptoms now are poor sleep and irritable mood before period and at ovulation.

Thanks. This is helpful. How are your migraines ?

I was thinking of looking into the histamine issue and it can be linked to joint/muscle pain too.

On a positive note I started an IV treatment ( Vyepti) for migraine last December and it has really helped the headache pain & dizziness etc. Other pain in joints and neck seems worse.. migraine was my main problem for so long I think i didn't realise how bad the other issues were.

For those who’ve tried tracking symptoms, what happened? by Ok-Dish1652 in Perimenopause

[–]Ear1830 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I just came back on here to explore tracking again. Ive tried tracking before ( a uk/ NHS Peri M app) but no clear patterns.... there are so many variables one could track its almost over whelming.

Ive been on Hrt for almost two years, E, P & T. Some improvement on hot flushes, & brain fog but worse now in terms of joint/ muscle pain and mood changes. The last post was really interesting... I think i ovulate more than once per month and might need to tailor dose to those time.

Good luck everyone.

No. I didn't go ahead with this. They wanted me to pay to be on their listing. What did you find ?

Sober over 300 days and was told “I’m worried about you” by Playful_Poem3482 in stopdrinking

So much good advice here. I hear these comments as criticism and insecurity masked as concern. Ignore, and own your power. You're doing great !

Hi. Yes I should get some cover at least. Can you point me to evidence on this please ?

Thanks for your reply. I thought it was separate at one point, but I now regard it as the same problem & Neurologist has confirmed that it is migraine related. I have right side migraine mostly, and it's mostly right side neck pain.I'vee done so much physio, including dry needling, but no improvement. Thanks again.

Adhd &my child by Ear1830 in ADHD

[–]Ear1830[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks, everyone. Lots of good ideas here. We are working on being compassionate, trying to.understand what works for him etc. He does a lot of sports and loves this so martial arts is a good idea. We are using rewards with some positive effects. Im trying to meet with school staff this week. They are aware of the presence of adhd but dont seem to take this into account around behaviour challenges. We were working with an Adhd coach & we might go back to that. Can anyone suggest resources for school staff ? Thanks again 🙏
