itching driving me crazy
Posted , 7 users are following.
Hi everyone,
I haven't had a period in nearly 3 years so am obviously well into the menopause. For the past few months I have been coming out in itchy spots that are gradually spreading over my body. Some are like blisters, some are small bumps and some are in red patches. All are itchy and driving me crackers and are really bad at night when I get hotter. My doctor is very non-comittal and says it's allergy or stress or an infection. I have the suspicion it's those old hormones running riot. Has anyone else got this problem? it may not relieve the symptoms but it will hope to know that it's another menopause "thing" to deal with. Thank you in anticipation

I have stopped taking all my supplements and am going to re-introduce 1 at a time, I think it has improved a bit but not stopped altogether and like you, worse at night. I find splashing cold water onto it in the night can help enough to let me get back to sleep.

My hands have been really itchy and sometimes my feet and body I did end up getting a itchy rash a few months ago but that cleared upÂ

Itching is definitely a problem. I get it -, but there are no external simptoms--not a mark to be seen, but very itchy all the same. You might be allergic to something---go to a dermotologist and you may find some help from that quarter.
