HRT

Hello Lovely Readers,

I started HRT last Monday. I have a twice weekly estrogen patch, and I am taking a progesterone capsule nightly

I was a little apprehensive about it, but I've almost gone a year without a period, and I don't really want to go without those ever so important hormones.

While in the throes of perimenopause I was also grieving the loss of my husband, so some things overlapped, and I couldn't really tell you what was what.

It's been almost five years since I lost him. I'm in a much better place emotionally, so some symptoms I've been experiencing I need to chalk it up to me being perimenopausal, and not grief

So let's see if they help with~

  • Sleeping better
  • Hot flashes
  • Hair loss
  • Peeing way too much
  • A weird smell, like fryer grease
  • Brain fog
  • Forgetfulness 
  • Mood swings
  • Dry eyes
  • Itchy skin
  • Anxiety 
  • Runny nose
  • It probably won't solve, but I now have a gut
I'll get back to you about it...

xo,
Steph
