Supplement suggestions?
Posted , 7 users are following.
Hi All! A little bit about what I am currently experiencing:
- I will be 47 this year
- I still have regular periods
- For the last 3 months I've been feeling some health anxiety. I keep thinking something is wrong with me because my body is telling me that something is definitely wrong.
- Occasionally I will feel nauseous and/or dizzy
- I have occasional heart palpitations
- I sometimes have night sweats. I wake up and my chest is drenched in sweat. Sometimes at night when the husband cops a feel his hand will be all wet. (Serves him right ;-)
- My cheeks (on my face, not butt) will get flushed like I ate some MSG.
- I'm not a very good baker.
- I have no rhythm whatsoever and dance like Elaine from Seinfeld.
* The last two aren't really peri-menopause symptoms but I'm adding them
What are some of the supplements that you've been recommended and how fast did it take to see results, if any?
Thanks!

First...you're hilarious! Secondly.
....you're peri menopausal....thirdly...you'll do fine with the shenanigans that peri plays with our minds n bodies because you approach it with a sense of humor!
We've all gone through everything you listed....you are not alone

For anxiety B-Stress complex really helped me. I didn't have the hit flush flash can't help there. Sex is good for everything keep your arteries working. Good luck 💕

LOL... I literally laughed reading your last 2 symptoms!! Why stay only with the "normal" stuff eh?
I have / had similar symptoms as you except for night sweats (touchwood)
Regarding supplements, I am using magnesium oil spray (better for stomach than magnesium tabs) and recently started using sunflower lecithin (1 tbsp mixed in a glass of water per day). Apart from that I have started a taking a multi-vitamin tab specially made for 50+ women and 10 drops of vit D oil concentrate.
I have been told that all of these should be really helpful in managing the M devil. Keeping my fingers crossed in any case.
All the best, and do tell what works / worked for you!

Oh my gosh a you an absolute doll Tina!! I am sure that no matter how burnt the muffins come out, or how flat the cake is, your family loves and appreciates all you do. And dancing? No matter how "well" some people are at it, it's still on the list of things that don't reflect one's character. I hope you can get some hood suggestions for your query here. I am very recently on BHRT and learning how to let go of the fear of death lurking because that's all I have known for over two years now. Hugs to you along your journey. And thanks for bringing me a smile. You're a sweetheart!
