The last couple of weeks I have felt at a lose?!!. I am peri about 8 months now and feeling more like depressed. Mood swings are you could say my bestest mate me and moods are buddies!!!!. I'm have a coil fitted and have just under 2 years left the Mirena coil. I have looked online at products that I can but but because I'm fitted with the coil I have been put off with buying anything. My question is can I buy anything ? For my mood swings I have been to the doctors and been fobbed off I'm to young and because I'm still experiencing normal periods I'm not peri? I'm 46!. I have gone to long not having anything and know I really need to start taking something I cannot carry on as ima.any advice ? I have looked at products Blck Codash, Angus something? Menopause etc. but there are so many products I just wouldn't know where to start.feel miserable moody and my temper is erratic!! I child scream plus I've 3 children and know looking forward (not) of 7weeks of the school holidays to look forward to. I have said to the doctor but as he thinks I'm not peri wont do a perscription?!!.

    Hi michelle05502

    sorry to here how you feel bout your mood swings ,i can understand how frustrating it can be doctors dont always tell you what can help with mood swing and can really make you feel really down .A friend recomend starflower capsules as they natural and can get them from holland and barratt ,i feel the difference when i dont take them and my moods getting emotional sensative ect.

      Hi marina, I don't really have a problem with the fitted coil Mirena. The first 6 months it was touch and go I seriously conserved having it taken out: I suffer with migranes and it was affecting me ( getting quite bad with migranes). Doctor advised me to see how my body continued and in the end I accomplished the coil!. Other than that no problems, I had this put in as I got pregnant quite late on at 38 ( with my youngest child ) after I had him I had this put in I didn't want anymore children I already had 2 with a big age gap 9&7 years between my youngest. It's lovely that we can come onto this site and pour out our problems to one another. Some days I feel that low I cry it's hard very hard. You have to love and care for your children and protect them but who is there for you? X

    Hi, if I were you I would go to another GP, try and find one that has a specialist interest in this subject.  I have just changed by practice as it felt as if I was being ignored.  Sorry I cant give any advice as I am new to all of this and finding it so hard to deal with.  Good luck and I hope you find someone that actually believes you and understands x
