Yes, I said the dreaded word. I have been going through it for about eight years now. Not taking hormones, doing it naturally and its a *****. lol Anyone else on here going through it?

After the divorce my Ex. said "Oh by the way I started taking hormones"

"A little late" I replied.

My mom and grandma were both done by 50, started early, ended early.
I started early, late 30's, so I'm wrapping it up now. I took crap years ago, made it worse. Diet, exercise, meditation. I would sometimes use sleeping pills if I had to but not a lot.

Truly..that is what I had to do...and awareness.

She would sit by an open winter in the middle of winter and tell me and the kids if we were cold to go put on a jacket. I suggested she get her hormones checked, she told me to get my F******g hormones checked. The PMS symptoms which were minimal for so many years became unreal. My kids came to me a couple of times and said "We're cold but Mom won't let us turn on the heat" She denied it was going on up until she told me she started medication.
