[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I figured I would post in this thread since there are already people checking it and it relates to perimenopause.

I had my long delayed annual physical. My Doctor said that she thought the over the counter herbals and options for perimenopause were safe. My mood swings are all over the place and I have been noticing all my normally mild PMS symptoms are becoming far less mild. My period is coming every other week, not super heavy or anything dangerous but so much more frequently.

Do any of you use a supplement/medicine for perimenopause? What has worked for you? [/quote]

I have just started bioidentical hormones and supplements (52, perimenopause, history of worsening pms). Only a few weeks in, I feel better already, and my sleep is improved which helps my appetite and ability to make better choices. I too am fasting and exercising more.  My joints feel much less stiff, it is going to be a process, absolutely but I will share with you that if you have hormone issues it will be an uphill battle because they influence everything and there are options now for safe replacement. Consider seeing an md who specializes in menopause. Or maybe an endocrinologist, I also took the Dutch test and it enabled my physician to customize my hormone replacement. Good luck.[/quote]
