i know how you feel, I have to take separate vitamins, because multi have iron in them, can't take menopace because it has soya in it which I believe does not get on well with thyroxine, have you had your vitamin levels checked, you may not even need a lot of them, I am sick of taking tablets, ask your GP to check your vitamin levels, and good luck they normally say no, well mine did.
If they make you feel better then carry on taking them. 😀

Know how you feel. I take vitamins for menopause but also arthritis as well so I end up with a handful every morning. Each time I hear someone say a particular thing works for them I try that too. It's getting ridiculous but I am too scared to stop any of them. Sometimes I reflect on how much I used to take my good health for granted.

I bought Menopace and thought i would try that, but on one particular anxious day i reverted back to Magneseum which seems to work for me, so am just taking that with Agnus Castus. As a result of feeling anxious most days lately, have changed diet Lots of pulses, vegetables, beetroot juice, bananas as potassium seratonin good mood enhancers seems to be working. I would check with Doctor taking all the pills together just as a precaution. If im feeling particularly crap i go for long walk, exercise seems to help get rid of the tension. Saying that if this rollercoster carries on i think i might be walking the length of Briton to ease the tension!!!!

I know, it's s bit of a minefield and so personal...could it be placebo effect ?
I'm as guilty as anyone when it comes to vits and supplements.
For years have taken high Vit B's for anxiety, high Omega 3, starflower oil, occasionally Kalms at certain times.
I'm 57, but still have periods so am peri?
Must be!
Recently, I've rejigged my vits!
I now take starflower and omega at breakfast. Then after dinner a Menopace Night (insomnia) and 200mg Magnesium citrate ... Still waiting to see if Menopace works for me but is at least a good multivitamin.
Suffering from insomnia for years, it's my main issue but I try not to get too stressed at night wondering if I'm going to get off and then stay asleep for longer than 4 hours!
Don't want to take Benylin to get me off as want to give new vits a chance! Nightmare!
Feel tired most mornings as really need to settle down 10.30pm but when sharing a life and a bed, it sometimes gets past 11 before settle down, tricky.
I, too, read and read reviews but that can become confusing as we're all so different.
Good luck, maybe a visit to G P for a blood test would be best. I'm thinking same! J

You need to be careful with your meds because menopace could cause side effects the magneseum could cause stomach problems, i don't know what black cohosh is or seasalt kelp and amytriplin is but you should talk to your doctor about these unesssary things you are taking and have him prescribe you something to help with you symptoms
Good luck and don't worry about your hair falling out
