Only just realised in the past month I’ve been peri menopausal since I was 40 (could set your clock by my periods). I’m now 51 (less regular now) and still having symptoms of all sorts… brain fog, debilitating depression, aches, night sweats … the list goes on… I wouldn’t wish my particular experience on my worst enemy. Hell on earth. 😢 I never knew this was what was going to happen.
OMGoodness I could cry I am currently experiencing so many awful symptoms muscle stiffness and balance problems being the most extreme to the point that I can’t hardly walk and being a hairdresser is proving very difficult to work. It’s resulted in me having to have lots of medical investigations which I am still waiting for results. I feel like I’m going mad a lot of the time but listening to Dr Louise Newson explain the many strange symptoms of menopause it is with great comfort that I’m not alone and i will be able to function normally at some point. Thankyou so much.
I finally had to quit my job bc of my horrible menopausal symptoms. I’m finally on a great HRT regimen and not to say that every day is perfect and wonderful, but I feel like I can function and participate in life again. Prayers and thoughts with you and all of the menopausal women out there.
Omg. This video is amazing. I have so many of these symptoms. I could cry. But what does one do? How do you know what you need if your GP doesn't know!!
Can relate massively at age 42. Sad realisation is I've suffered many of these symptoms much earlier due to an abusive relationship and a huge breakdown at just age 29. I dropped from my healthy weight of 8 stone to just 4.5 stone. My Asian GP had no sympathy & simply stated I had to help myself. I could barely stand nor walk in a straight line and felt as though I had full on dementia as well as chronic anxiety. A psychiatrist with primary mental health diagnosed me with agoraphobia, GAD, chronic depression, panic disorder and PTSD. Not once were my hormone levels checked. So after wasting most of my 30's in pain shut away & missing out on my daughter (she was just 5 when I fell on my knees) growing up in this mental torture and complete dissociation, I'm now going through peri menopause it seems! Who'd be a woman?!! All the doctors offer is diazepam, propranolol and anti depressant medication which numbs any feelings and paralyses you. Prevents you getting back to any semblance of normality. Western medicine fails to adequately aid people in my opinion and is more geared to creating profit, period. New sub Doc, great info 👍🏻
You have verbalized in such plain English all the neurological issues facing women in menopause. I was not impacted with hot flashes (maybe had 2 or 3 ) BUT my worst menopausal symptoms are indeed neuro based (memory, balance (depth perception), word finding, insomnia) followed by gastrointestinal symptoms (severe constipation, bloating, etc) and crushing fatigue! TY for all you do! You're helping women all over the world. Grateful from across the pond!
@@crh251 Yes lots better: 5 months of HRT 💪 Yet, still hoping to get on some small dose of testosterone in a few weeks if my doctor "lets" me... greetings over the big pond🍀
@@nicolemerz1731, that’s great! I’ve been on HRT for 2 1/2 years now. I’m not on testosterone either, but I’m hoping to talk to my doctor about trying it. I don’t think we need much, but it’s supposed to be quite helpful also.
Finally, someone has mentioned that 'drugged' feeling. I thought I was going crazy! I have quite a lot of these symptoms as well as irregular cycle; however, my GP thinks i have an anxiety disorder 😐
Totally understand this too I describe It as feeling poisoned by my own body I'm pretty sure it was first diagnosed as anxiety this all started 10 years ago at 37 but it's been really bad the last 4 years now the periods are changing I really hope your doing okay xx ❤❤
Thank you! That is what i find very annoying, when they simply it to hot flash, dryness and mood, when there is so much more debilitating symptoms theyre not mentioning. It actually feels like dying, or going crazy.
Oh my goodness i am actually going insane, i am afraid to go out, i dont want to see anyone, i feel ugly, my body is unrecognizable, i am always dizzy, i feel sick all the time, i just want to go hide under a rock. My husband thinks i am crazy, i am just about ready to run away to Jamaica lol
Thank you so much Louise, I've been following your UA-cam for a few years, following a surgical menopause. This video is absolutely on point for me! So many of these symptoms fit my experience. I'm on estradiol 50mg and testosterone, having recently changed from the Lenzetto spray, as it was irritating my skin. Many thanks for your thorough information as always.
I'm so glad that you mentioned doses at the end. I'm already on 100mcg patches and after a few years, my bloods still aren't even at 250pmol /L. I'm post menopausal, so there won't be any more produced by me. Not being able to increase to a physiological level concerns me very much as I'm a coeliac and sedentary because of M.E. I understand that it's because the manufacturers licence is only up to 100mcg. I wish they'd trialled higher doses, because for a lot of women, 100mcg isn't doing it. Now waiting to see the NHS meno clinic, but of course they can also refuse on 'maximum dose' grounds. What can we do when we're NHS patients? Thank you 😊xx
Me too. It’s an absolute disgrace that we aren’t taught all of this in Sex Education. Or at least there should be leaflets about it in Surgeries. It’s dangerous actually.
Thanks louise for your information I have experienced alot of the symptons mentioned in peri and through research and joining your clinician was oblivious with little knowledge I am much different now often helping friends where theymaybe confused to do the research etc I'm now 57 and been on HRT fromnewson for approx two to three years I still feel very much that my symptons greatly affect my daily life and it can get you down I'm having my heart tweaked again and was hoping for a better 2024 , xx
This is so helpful. I developed asthma in my 40s, heart palpitations in my 30s, and I just cough all day every day. I’m on estrogen, progesterone, and testosterone but still have symptoms. The cough is especially miserable.
I’ve had/have a lot of these symptoms that have eased with HRT patch, estradiol and testosterone but some are still there. Even though I have researched, read, listened and talked about there are still some symptoms that I didn’t know 😳
Loved all this info Louise, thank you. TESTOSTERONE!! just cant get that its like gold dust😢 i do take HRT works for some symptoms. Im better taking it than not. Great vlog👍
So much more helpful information. I’m learning more with every video you produce. Thank you so much. Recently started HRT but would like to see if testosterone would complete the symptom relief. 🤞😍
Wish you were my doctor as the doctor who is a woman told me before you go down the HRT try other things as once you start on HRT it's hard to come off that was 12 months ago nothing has helped the stiffness low mood crying anxiety are there all the time trying to get a appointment is a night mare even just a over the phone consultation got to wait 2 months.
I asked the GP reception if i could talk to someone about increasing my hrt. Instead of waiting to see a doctor, the practice pharmacist rang me the same day and prescribed me eostrogel and was so much more informed than the GPs.
I am 47 and for couple years i have different symptomes and when i go to my gp is "it;s stress. And i said mored than couple times that i know that stress might be one of the factor but i feel that is not all. I have IBS, constipation, globus sensation , pins and needles in my body , swollen hands, aches in my hands, icchy skin... and they did tested inflamation levels in my body and luckily there was not. and yet No one but really no one mentioned that those symptomes are related to hormons. Someone recently told me that women in ther 40's experience all sort of menopousal symtomes. So as medicine has indeed failed women , i went on a yourney to discover what are this mysteious symtomes. and i found you. I wish if i can get in contact with Dr. Newson.
Why why do we have to go through mens-truation to men-O-pause.... 50s are the second phase of real freedom and life to enjoy but all these hormones just cause turbulence.... Thanks doc for the detailed information.!
I have been suffering night drenching (changing my bed x2 per night) since 2018. My cognitive function and emotional state has been declining and so terrifying this year that I believed i was beginning with dementia like my gran I nursed. After several visits to my GP surgery over the years I was finally referred to Endocrine (hormones) at the beginning of THIS year! The young Dr I was seeing there was absolutely CLUELESS on menopause (She was horrified at me taking T) and told me I should stop ALL HRT immediately and especially the testosterone!!GRRRR.. (the game changing hormone for me!). I didn't agree but stopped it anyway as at the time it scared me. They were looking for tumours. I hadn't had a period for 2 yrs (on POP contraception!)so has diagnosed me POST MENOPAUSAL?!! I am 44. I began this journey at 36. Since being discharged I have had 2 PERIODS! this is how un educated our NHS medical profession are! Due to cognitive function and emotional state I have now lost my job and suffering anxiety and depression so badly I am scared to leave my house. Menopause can be devastating. I have refused anti depressants and instead am starting my HRT again with testosterone. I do not care what the hospital have said! It's the only thing that keeps me functioning and well! Ladies PLEASE listen to this amazing woman! Thank you for your work Louise ❤ (came to watch you at Buxton).
My facial parasthesia and tinnitus turned out to be MS - don’t be afraid to push for more investigation if such symptoms don’t improve with sufficient HRT.
That has to do with inflammatory in the brain (and also the gut area) because of food. With the carnivore diet the symptoms are almost gone after 2 months!!!!!!!!
Thanks Dr. So informative. Subscribed ✅️. How do we go about finding a good provider to prescribe the HRT? (UK) My GP doesn't seem to know too much to help properly 😵💫🤷🏿♀️
Thank you so so much for your work !!! i am officially menopausal since october... have you ever heard of this symptom : when i bend my head forward my tailbone vibrates. No pain just weird...
Itchy skin on the thighs happens with girls especially when wearing tights even wool and sitting down for far too long in schools. That was also hormonal especially at the start of menses.
At 51 I’ve just been diagnosed with endometriosis. I’d love to try HRT as I have had peri symptoms for the last 6 years but so many on the endometriosis support groups I follow say HRT makes their endo so much worse and there seems to be such conflicting advice for endo and hrt, I’m so so confused and my GP and gynae aren’t particularly helpful. I no longer know what to do. All I know is that I am bogged down with peri symptoms and it’s deeply affecting my life right now.
Both my hands have developed trigger fingers and are very painful. I finally had testosterone added to my HRT but so far no difference. I have had shots in three fingers but it does not last long and comes back.
@Blit8858 I developed trigger finger 6 years ago and gp said go to have injections at the hospital I refused as my father who has arthritis in both hands and has had operations on them said to take 1000mg of turmeric tablets daily. I have not had trigger finger since I started the tablets and other supplements. My hands do hurt though but I was very grateful that they don't freeze in the morning like they did. I hope that helps
I had trigger finger for years. Both hands. So very painful. It really ended once I said goodbye to sugar. Of course I'm not discounting hormones influence. 🙄
I was on HRT but my practice nurse who has special interest in Menopause stopped it due to vaginal bleeding and abdominal pain etc. Couldn’t get to see GP. Now have vaginal dryness and migraines. Wouldn’t even think about testosterone at GP’s think I’ll have to go private. Can you recommend doctor in Essex or Ipswich. Thanks
Can low eostrogen levels cause palpitations. I’ve been taking 1 mg for a year but the palpitations are getting worse. I’ve mentioned this to my go but he’s dismissed it. Thanks Sharon
I'm having many of the symptoms you mention. I'm now 68 and never been on HRT. My biggest problem now is chronic severe insomnia. I'm now considering HRT, it's hard to say when I went through menopause, periods went haywire and stopped in my mid 40's, I was under a large amount of stress at the time. Because it would be more than 10 years from when I went through the menopause. Am I at a higher risk or any risk of anything as I would be starting HRT much later in life and is it right you can only be on HRT for five years. Thank you.
I’m 53 had regular (24-26 day) cycle life long, never on birth control. My period stopped last cycle end of August. Last month it returned for 4 days light. Then stopped for 4 days then started again …. Spotting only every day for the past 12 days. Discomfort on the right side. I did have a vaginal ultrasound 3 years ago when I had some spotting between periods …. Ovaries looked normal at the time. Uterine lining was in normal range but on the thicker side. Is prolonged spotting normal in perimenopause?
Testosterone fixed my neuropenia of 5 years I tried everything else herbs vits food sleep oestrogen 6 weeks after starting testim neutrophils had popped up by 50 percent
Thank you doctor my name is martha , can you please talk about the bones and the best thing to take for them. I eat a bit of cheese every day. Thank you
Women shouldn't be experiencing breast tenderness if you are taking the correct supplements especially Vit B complex and high quality Magnesium. And of course VitD3 daily all year round. All these issues can be cleared up when you are younger.

I feel your pain I’ve been 10 years into the change, I’m on HRT for the last 3 without that I would not of managed at all.
