I have recently had a blood test which confirms I am going through the menopause.

?I am having hot flushes ,nausea and terrible mood swings from wanting to scream to crying at anything.

?I have started HRT tablets which I take early evening .I haven't slept since starting them .

I'm thinking maybe I should take them in the morning ,anyone had this problem?

    Hi Carol I’m the same as you. Started HRT a week ago. Haven’t seen any improvement yet. I was taking it at 5pm but have just changed to taking it in the morning as I was feeling a dip in the afternoon. The worse thing is the nausea. Doc gave me some anti sickness pills on Friday as I’ve been unable to eat. I feel so ill xx

      Hi Carol

      Yes that’s me too!

      I can’t eat and I don’t feel hungry and nothing tastes right.

      Which HRT are you on? X
