HRT & Fibroids! - Why HRT isn't for me (and it's not for the reasons you may think!)
I have now been on a three year journey with HRT and the menopause and have written various blogs on the subject (see below) along the way, however I feel this may be my final blog on the subject and here's why........ My journey with HRT so far I went from being dubious, to a total convert when it came to HRT however about 4 months ago I went to the Doctor for a review of my HRT (which had been great up until that point) and was told that the Evorel Dual Conti patches were no longer considered the 'best'...
Oh my Menopause.....What I've tried, what's worked and what I wouldn't waste time with!
I have definitely got Menopause fatigue and I don't just mean from all the hormonal changes but from the constant bombarded from ads promising the world and delivering sod all, then there is the the endless narrative on TV shows and podcasts. So I decided to share my experiences in the hope that it might save you some time, money and hopefully raise a smile on the way. I have recently updated previous posts with my latest discoveries (both good and bad!) Just so you get the picture I founded The Canni Family in 2018, I am in my 40's (pushing 50)...
CBD and the Menopause — Does it work and if so how?
The endocannabinoid system is a collection of cell receptors, called cannabinoid receptors, in the brain, other organs, and tissues throughout the body. This system plays an important role in menopause, and CBD affect the way that it works. In theory, this means that CBD could influence the effects of menopause on the body. Cannabinoid receptors are involved in: mood regulation the functioning of the immune system pain sleep memory fertility and reproduction temperature regulation One theory is that a poorly functioning endocannabinoid system can lead to various health conditions. By influencing the function of the endocannabinoid system, chemicals like CBD may help...
HRT and Me - Has it made any real difference?
Since writing my recent blog: 10 things I wish i’d known about the Perimenopause as an ‘older mum’! (you are not losing your mind!) and receiving such an overwhelming response I thought I’d follow it up with the other question I have been asked ‘Has HRT made a difference yet? And more recent sequel, looking at natural alternatives: Oh my Menopause.....What I've tried, what's worked and what I wouldn't waste time with! As HRT is not something I expected to be taking this early in life ( I still don't feel middle aged), so I thought I’d keep a diary a kind...
10 things I wish i’d known about the Perimenopause as an ‘older mum’! (you are not losing your mind!)
(Just a quick update (08.10.24) on this Blog, since Louise Newson the author has been 'outed' on Panorama for dubious practices. Whilst I agree over prescribing Oestrogen is not acceptable especially to those patients who are prone to certain types of Cancer (and fibroids as it turns out) I have reread the book and I still agree with the advice in it!) Recently I was given a book by my mum entitled ‘Preparing for the Perimenopause and Menopause’ by Dr Louise Newson which sat on a shelf gathering dust for a month or so until I gave in and thought I better educate myself....
