I’m two days into HRT and I’m sleeping better than I have in years and can feel the brain fog lifting. I mainly chose this route out of sheer desperation because of migraines. They started In perimenopause. Twice a week for the past seven years!!!!

It didn’t matter how clean my diet was or how much yoga I did to “stay calm”.

I’m on the patch and pill. Fingers crossed it helps. Thank-you for posting this. It helps to feel less alone. 💜✨

I too took those herbs and when my sister asked me what they tasted like, I said, "if trees could poop, they taste like that. Here try some." I never had a hot flash and I didn't take hormones for 17 years. For unrelated reasons I then started taking bio identical compounded hormones. Recently my doctor recommended an endometrial strip biopsy because I am taking them late in life. I was fine and plan to continue taking them, but in a lower dose. It doesn't hurt to get your libido back either.
