So ladies as you all know,I'm experiencing sore boobs.

from my previous post I wrote, BUT I'm now experiencing some shooting pain quite random illy , in both breasts, which alternate!?

is this normal ? Should I be concerned? Not forgetting no bra has been properly worn since September!!!!.

they are tremulously sore , painful and heavy I'm on week3/4 on HRT so just wondering when the heck this will settle down?.

as well as this my mood swings are still the same with horrid to people? I've had enough its one thing after another and always feel so low and down in the dumps it's horrid!

to the point of contain plating of going back onto Sertline?!!.

sorry for this tantrum but feeling so low and miserable.

      Hi

      Has the vitamin b helped at all? I have terrible mood swings. I'm so ashamed of all the ups and downs.

      Vitamin B6 benefits during Peri & Menopause ..

      Posted over a year ago

      useful info for new ladies...  this helped me no end ..

      i take 150mg B6 daily in the morning..  also B12 for energy... brilliant 

      Menopause Mood Swings & Vitamin B6

      Vitamin B6 may alleviate menopausal mood swings.

      During menopause, mood swings are inevitable with estrogen fluctuations as the body ends its reproductive years.

      Hi, yes it has helped me in the past. You should feel the benefit after a week or so of taking it.

      I take magnesium malate, it's not a common one, but I have been told it's a good one. Seems to work for me

    To be honest Shelley, this is all stuff you have to get through to get to the

    other side. I have had it all and I am now getting sore underneath my breasts

    and have to get my bra off when I get in as it feels painful and irritating.

    I am 56 and postmenapausal, still I am getting a range of symptoms.

    Usually I just grin and bear it but today I am having one of those feeling

    sorry days. So today I am saying take whatever helps,unfortunately I can't as

    I have high bp.

    Good luck to you and I hope you feel better soon.

    Yes B6 min 100mg recommended by a doctor i saw a few years ago when I started on this horror movie!!

    Menopol Plus is another good all rounder for hot flushes and and anxiety etc cant put the website on here but copy and paste and put into google and you company. 

    Evening primrose is meant to be good for the breast tenderness.

    I can also recommend acuppunture for anxiety and moodswings and again a great all rounder for acid reflux etc.

    Massive hugs to you and stay positive and if you can remember we are all different and things will get easier I am sure as 3 years ago I wouldn't even leave the house and go to work I was that low but ended up with taking a Estrodot estrogen patches and Ultrostan (progesterone) but used separately and both are the most natural to our own hormones and because of this I believe I have got my old self back.  I always loved my holidays and even 3 years ago for my 50th my husband booked to take me away to Dubai for my celebrations and hated every moment of it whereas now I back to really look forward to great things once again.!!

      Yes I agree Evening Primrose is very good for sore heavy breasts. Hrt can cause it. I know it did for me but Evening primrose has eased it. It takes about 2 weeks to start working though.

    I heard vitamin E is also good for breast pain and I started taking 400mg everyday and my breast pain is much better. I never tried the epo bc it got better. Last time I ordered the vitamin e I accidentally ordered a different one and my breast pain started coming back. So I reordered the other one and it hasn't already started helping and it's only been a few days. I can't believe how one little difference in the ingredients effected it. So, get one that just has E in it and nothing else.
