Hi everyone

I am a 56yr old lady who has not taken any form of HRT.  The menopausal symptoms are many and are really getting me down.  I have prescribed Livial but despite having it in my drawer for 10 months have not got the courage to try it!  I am terrified of it causing dizziness and I have read that it can.  I used to suffer from terrible Vertigo and don't want to risk that.  My symptoms include temperature changes, irritability, forgetfulness, low libido, vaginal soreness, clumsiness, depression, weight gain, intense itching at night, frequent urine infections,  etc etc!  Any advice gratefully received!

    Hi, I would give it a go and see how it affects you personally as we're all different. It will depend on the degree of your symptoms how much you benefit from it. I've been on it for 18 months and it's stabilised my mood swings, calmed the flushes, increased my libido, I managed to lose weight on it but it's not totally cured everything but life is much more comfortable and thus I'm happier :-)

      Thats ok, as I said for me it hasn't cured everything but it works perfectly for the typical menopausal symptoms. I hope it works well for you :-) x
