Hello, this is my first time here and am hoping someone will be able to help...in the process of deciding which treatment (if any) I will take for my pre menopausal symptoms, of which there are many.i seem to be suffering with most of them at the mo but the worst at the moment is my lack of libido. After reading through many of everyone else's symtoms, iv got myself onto the advised supplements and am hopeful..but, can anyone help with suggesting what will bring back the want for sex??

      For a woman going through perimenopause, B-vitamins can be essential for effectively managing symptoms.   

      Adrenal fatigue, for example, is a common secondary condition for many women going through perimenopause. B-vitamins support healthy adrenal function, along with calming and maintaining a healthy nervous system. Many women also suffer with mood swings during perimenopause.

      Both B12 and B6 vitamins aid in the production of neurotransmitters such as serotonin, a key brain chemical needed to stabilize moods and promote feelings of wellness and contentment.

      For women who suffer with brain fog, and memory issues in perimenopause, low levels of B6 could be part of the problem. Depression, confusion, and an inability to concentrate are all associated with B6 deficiency.

      Vertigo, dizziness, and heart palpitations are also common complaints from women going through perimenopause.

      All of these symptoms have been associated with (among other things) a B12 deficiency. Vitamin B6 can also help with stubborn weight gain in perimenopause.

      It is key in the breakdown and utilization of carbohydrates, fats, and proteins in our diet, and is necessary for a healthy metabolism - both which can help manage weight.

      look for complexes containing at least 100mg of B6.

      jarrows B12 5000mcg is the best strength
