I was previously on the one that gave you a period every month but I didnt mind as I felt fabulous. I had lots of energy, a clear head and it really helped with my night sweats. It also rekindled my sex drive.
After a couple of years I decided as I was 54 I'd change to the Conti tablets so no period. I've been on them for 3 months now and feel very different. I am having hot flushes again and feeling anxious which is horrible. Also I have no interest in sex but this might be because I'm hot and anxious! I have made an apmt to see my GP to try something else. I've been looking online to try and find what I should be asking for. My GP doesnt seem to have much knowledge in this area he just gets out his book.
Shame we cant see someone how is a specialist in this field.
