  So many women are told it’s just stress or anxiety when it may actually be perimenopause. Conversations like this help women trust their symptoms and seek the right support. At the Global Menopause Collective, we’re working to make sure women feel heard, informed, and less alone in this journey.

  The one thing in perimenopause and menapause is that we don’t talk about the hormones and our mind set in our relationships marriage etc would b a good topic with an expert on this subject to help navigate this issue in ourselves cheers

  Sounds absolutely fantastic so I looked up the pricing and realised this is totally an accessible to me when a women going to be treated fairly. Sorry to say, but I’ve had to ask myself if you’re just capitalising on women’s journeys by offering totally an accessible pricing what’s the reason this can’t be reduced? Dylan done my frustration at anger being 51 and having my HRT not really working properly, on the Nhs providing me with brush off answers

  I’m well into menopause.. 18 months without period , I’m 55 . So sleep anxiety / insomnia and consequential sleep deprivation &amp; the &nbsp;physiological symptoms resulting in palpitations nervous stomach , heat around my skin . All were horrendous. So I pleaded with my doc for 20 mg fluoxetine as been on it in the past for anxiety low mood and it worked . It’s also an antidepressant and also known as Prozac . It’s kicked in after 6 weeks that and supplemented with propanorol in the evening I’m finally sleeping touch wood !! Not on HRT .. YET!! Going back to doc to discuss , but here’s a question if HRT works for horrendous sleep anxiety insomnia and subsequent physiological symptoms associated, do I go off the other meds ?? Btw I would rather feel a little flat and not cry at sad films …than be going crazy in the night not being able to fall asleep ruminating , scared , developing debilitating physiological chronic stress symptoms in the body . Everyone is different and one persons anxiety or insomnia can be very different to another persons .
