My opinion is stay away from HRT because putting more hormones into your body can cause more symptoms

Some ladies who have gone the hole 'natural/no HRT' route can give fantastic advice on here.
Me: like you I'm using serenity progesterone cream - now are you finding that?
I'm also a total convert to Menopace Original. What has it done for me?
Made aching joint pain 100% better. That's been great.
Overall mood improved. Don't feel weepy and feel much more 'in control'
Don't get out flushes - whether thats anything to do with what I'm taking or not, not sure, but I'm bloody grateful!!
Still can get up during the night up to 4 times for a week, so not sure if I technically class that as 'insomnia'. But I'd slept without getting up for 6hrs the other night. I knew that by remembering my last trip to the loo ha, h:-) !! I'd love a few more of them please.
Having said that I very rarely feel tired during the day, feel quite energetic. Only exception to this is I can feel knackered/fatigued as I start to come on: to be expected I suppose.
Trying a top-up of Magnesium: not sure as yet. Don't want to over-do the 'vits'-thing. I'd be very happy to stick with the Menopace cos I've felt so much better since taking it.
Maybe give that a try?
Good Luck
