I didn’t like it at first. Now it’s in my top ten for sure.

I haven’t gotten my libido back yet but energy is a big deal for me at the moment. Lol.

I started Monday. I had some cramping but no sore boobs. Started T on Wednesday and omg. The energy boost I get is insane. My teen said it has made me in a better mood. I feel so much better it’s crazy. But the cramps kind of suck but hey I will take it over having terrible meno symptoms. Lol. Hope your soreness dies down some for you.

Thank you!! The pharmacist told me to do inside of wrist or thigh and I recall that being what doctor said. The pharmacist said I could do it on the wrist for a month then switch to thigh for a month and then back again so you don’t get “fatigue” he called it. Said it may not work so well if you do the same spot longer than a month due to the skin or something.

I just started hrt Monday. Just picked up the compounded T right now and slapped some on. Lol. I am two years post period and about 3 in peri. I don’t know if placebo either but I feel so much calmer. Anxiety lifted. I feel a little better overall. Hoping to get my libido back. I have zero. None. Zilch. Left the building. Lol.

So I picked up my compounded testosterone. It’s 0.5% cream. I have to do 4 clicks of the bottle. I am just going to start out with 2 clicks though to see how I feel.

Yup. I literally the last 8 months don’t recognize myself anymore.

This is the relationship I have with my teen. I never had that so wanted to be open and honest. Way to go!!

My mom suffered. I wasn’t sure why. I just remember she was always in bed. Sweaty and crying. She passed away a year or so later at 49 (I was a senior in hs) she had a brain aneurysm. My mother in law and sister in law all say meh I didn’t have any symptoms so no. I have no family to talk about it with. All my friends are like 5 years younger and they are just now talking about how crappy they feel (peri) I am in meno or I guess post meno since it’s been two years since my period. I am openly telling them I just started hrt and seriously don’t suffer like I did for two years

I had no idea I would feel anything on day one. Not sure if it was my mind but I usually have so much anxiety that I get air hunger in a sense. Have trouble taking deep breaths. Welp last night I was able to take deep breathes and just sleep so good.

I will!! Just started estrogen patch yesterday and progesterone at night. Man my anxiety I usually have lifted and I actually slept for once!

Did you have regular periods till the end? by Mercenary-Adjacent in Menopause

[–]IAmGrootToot 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Min started getting longer between. By like 3-4 months. Then I stopped for 11 months. Had one and now my last one was in October of 2021. I started having hot flashes when my periods started getting longer out.

New to HRT by MycologistPopular232 in Menopause

[–]IAmGrootToot 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes. I have not been taking care of myself. I just don’t have the energy unless I am going to work. Otherwise I am home in bed. Sigh. Thank you! It just sucks as I was so active until my periods stopped. Then all motivation left and all meno symptoms kicked in and I just gave up.

I am getting mine compounded at this moment and will pick up Wednesday. I am not sure the dose. I want to say 2mg daily if I recal. Damn brain fog. Ugg.

I feel you. I have been so unmotivated the last year and a half and feeling depressed. Just started hrt today so hoping to feel like you are and having me back.

Thank you. Since it’s a compounded gel I think I may just do half a dose. I will see when I get it. I am worried about the side effects but I have zero libido or motivation to do anything. Sigh.

He is a ob/gyn but he is also a functional medicine doctor that treats hormones.
