My Menopause Journey

Talking about personal issues is not always easy .... and talking about menopause is a subject most don't want to discuss at all. All women will go through menopause ... this is my journey. Please note ... I am not telling anyone what to do or what they need, I am simply sharing my experience in order to get people talking ... and thinking about themselves.

Thank you for listening.

Thank you. I had a hysterectomy at age 44. I still have my ovaries but the torment I went through mentallly was unbearable. I kept thinking I would not be a woman but an “it”. All my tears and fears were unfounded.

I am 57 and well through menopause per blood tests. I use supplements to help me with the ever lingering symptoms.

It was more manageable when I finally accepted menopause. I am lucky I’ve made it long enough to experience this as some of my friends have not. My older friend told me horror stories about her menopause experience that made me depressed initially. My gyno advised me to get new friends and to hang around with spunky, zesty and more positive women. 😀

I’m doing fine now I’m so happy you are feeling well. You definitely need to be your own health care advocate.

Thank you so much for sharing your journey. I have filled my prescription for HRT, but it’s been sitting in my bathroom for about a month, anxious to begin it, worried I’ll feel worse. It’s thanks to the people like you who share your journey that make me realize in my heart… it’s the best thing for me to do. Best wishes on your journey 🌻

Thanks so much for sharing! I think I need to check out HRT…tired of feeling like my body has declared war on me. Every. Single. Day. Don’t feel so alone now ❤️

Thank you for sharing your storyi am glad that menopause is in the open. I have had it easier in terms of physical symptoms but my mood has been awfully low. My gp also seemed reluctant to prescribe HRT...it wasn't explicitly said but he probably thought I needed antidepressant. I can but give it a few months.

Really helpful, thank you for sharing your story. I will do my research and then go to my GP.
