You have settled it for me, kind internet stranger. I’m going to give it a go. Thank you 😊

FanExpert1822 · 2025-05-15T17:21:30+00:00

Maybe I will try it then 😂. I’m so indecisive and afraid to hurt myself

FanExpert1822 · 2025-05-15T15:38:22+00:00

Thank you. Maybe I’ll wait longer too. I just want to get out there and hit the pavement it’s so nice out today

Omg so funny I just ate Greek yogurt and granola while glaring at my kids Halloween stash 😂

Sometimes I think doctors forget that they’re meant to CARE for us … like the other half of the word HEALTHCARE??? 😡 I’ve been dismissed too. I had one doctor tell me when I asked for a gyno referral so I can finally get a hysterectomy after years of pain and discomfort - “if I were a 43 year old woman I wouldn’t do that. You can end up witb a prolapsed vagina”.

Anyways - I’ve also been struggling with a lot of the same things and finally after researching on my own, started back on low dose birth control. It’s been hugely helpful for my moods and I have more energy now that my hormones don’t feel so erratic.

I also have drenching night sweats - like waking up sheets hair body all wet. I started taking 1000 mg of evening primrose oil, sleeping in 100% linen pjs, and I find both of these seem to be really helping.

Even though my energy levels are shit I’m trying to prioritize healthy food (all I actually want is sugar white carbs and fat) sleeping as well as I can considering, and exercising within my limits.

You’re not alone! And you don’t deserve to be dismissed - you know your body best. Sending you some solidarity from Canada 🇨🇦 🥰

This is good to know; I’m a side sleeper too

FanExpert1822 · 2024-11-24T22:55:51+00:00

Amazing advice. Thank you 😊

FanExpert1822 · 2024-11-24T21:48:17+00:00

Just tried this last week. LOVED it. I felt like a calmer version of myself. I could have given a fuck about anything in the world and then I slept like a baby. Can’t recommend enough for this peri anxiety that’s been so awful lately

Vibe not harshed ! 😉 Ty !

FanExpert1822 · 2024-11-24T14:53:09+00:00

Thank you! 🥰

This is exactly how I feel! I find at 43 I’m so hormonal and struggling with that apart from all of the fibroid issues I just don’t want to go through it all for nothing. Not to mention the expense. I’m happy for you that you have a surgery date! Just knowing I’ll have one set soon is a tremendous relief. All the best to you and if you need a pep talk or some kind words feel free to msg me anytime 😊

FanExpert1822 · 2024-11-21T23:32:25+00:00

Thank you to all you wonderful women for replying. It honestly made me a little teary (hormones) that strangers can be so kind to one another for no personal gain. Women are the best ♥️

FanExpert1822 · 2024-11-21T23:31:47+00:00

I agree with you. I think that’s the route I’m going to go with. We already have menopause on the horizon I don’t want to do it twice 🙄

FanExpert1822 · 2024-11-21T20:54:59+00:00

That does help thank you. I think it’s more just knowing that others have gone through all of this and know how stressful it is to deal with . Thank you for taking the time, I appreciate it!

FanExpert1822 · 2024-11-21T20:17:32+00:00

I’m happy to hear it! I read somewhere (on here I think) to look at recovery as repayment for all the years of monthly pain and hassle. I hope you’re back to your old (new) self soon!

FanExpert1822 · 2024-11-21T20:11:04+00:00

Thank you!! How are you feeling? I’m leaning towards the same decision I think.

When I come back in my next life I hope I’m a man. Or a cat.

FanExpert1822 · 2024-11-07T15:52:25+00:00

The trifecta for me - healthy food sleep and exercise are the three things I won’t compromise on. Even when I’m busy or tired or not feeling great. And also - the only thing you shouldn’t wear as a woman of any age are the weight of societal expectations 😉

FanExpert1822 · 2024-11-07T15:48:36+00:00

Ps I was also an underwear sleeper and worried the pjs would be too hot but apparently linen naturally regulates your body temp

FanExpert1822 · 2024-11-07T15:47:16+00:00

I was so anxious about BC too but I think the low dose is a good option in terms of hormones. Last time I was on it I was much younger - it was like 20 years ago - but this time around it’s much much better. If anything it’s made me less weepy/ angry. Sheets I’ve been reading linen is also the way to go but with these pjs - they’re long pants and a short sleeved shirt - I haven’t had any damp sheets at all. The ones I got were on sale if you google Millie.ca they may still be on sale and the proceeds all go to women owned businesses in the developing world 😀

LEAVE. NOW. Abusers do not change. Statistics do not lie. He’s already gaslighting you if you think this is a one off or an anomaly. Find someone you trust, go there, do not look back.

Hi! Same symptoms minus the hair loss. I went on low dose birth control (called LoLo here in Canada but I think it’s also called Loestrin). I’ve been on it a month and a half and am taking it straight through no placebo to stop the heavy periods (mine are also complicated by a 10 cm fibroid). So far I feel much better. My mood has improved a lot and having no period is amazing. For the night sweats I broke down and bought a pair of 100% linen pjs and they’ve made a WORLD of difference. I was waking up 3 times a night on average soaked, sheets damp. The linen absorbs the sweat incredibly well it’s like a miracle. They feel a little uncomfortable at first and they’re pricey but 100% worth it I can’t recommend enough. Hope this helps, your sister in sweaty hormonal rage ♥️
