What are DSers doing for perimenopause, hormone replacement therapy, what else?

[LorettaLynn]

I started at 277 and now weigh 138. I am the healthiest I have ever been.

I am 44 yrs old, now on an estrogen patch and a progesterone pill to Even out my waning lady hormones. Unfortunately the rage, depression, anxiety, and poor sleep periodically return with a vengeance. I started Zoloft recently.

Even though it’s oil based I take a seabuck thorn supplement to add some moisture to my genital system.

I do still menstruate. I do not have sex.

What do other DSers do for perimenopause symptoms? What is working well for anyone else out there?

I just rode it out. None of my symptoms were terrible. I’m post menopausal now. Not much help I guess.

I am so sorry and hope you can find something that helps. I found perimenopause to be hard and it went on forever, but once I actually reached menopause things were fine.

I'm sorry I don't have advice (and not even a DSer!) - this is tough.
