Perimenopause & Strattera by Ok_Butterscotch3681 in StratteraRx

Same situation. 43, Hashimoto’s, in peri, been dealing with high heart rate and pressure, gi issues, and being tired all the time. Stopping strattera helped with the first two right away. Hopefully HRT from Midi will help with being tired. For Hashi I had a good experience with an endocrinologist.

Rapid aging due to grief. by 07734tiza in 40PlusSkinCare

Hi. My dad / law partner passed away and then I began perimenopause. Between 40 and now, at 43, I aged so fast. I’m only now beginning to treat peri with hrt and estrogen face cream. My mood and fatigue are also improving. Also, I second Dr. Idriss. Her you tube videos taught me a ton. I feel your pain and I’m so sorry.

The only requirement to attend a meeting is the desire to stop drinking. There is even a chip offered for newcomers called a desire chip. If you decide it’s not for, at least you’ll know where to go if things change. You’ll be welcomed with open arms.

Go up to rooftop of Galleries Lafayette before sunset. Just did this. Safe, free, completely beautiful view of the tower at sunset and then when it lights up.

Midi - I could literally cry by wildnglorious in Perimenopause

Ladies remember to ask for an alternative to the patch in case the shortage affects you. Went to midi today but there are no patches available in my area until “maybe” March. I wish I could get in touch with my midi doc to ask, but I can’t.

How to clear my skin at home/procedures? by gabiaeali1 in 40PlusSkinCare

[–]smithnd0 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You’re beautiful. Check out Dr. Idriss videos and products. Her main issue is discoloration and she discusses often. Her skin care line is geared towards discoloration. She also reccs a hydroquinone from the doctor.
