I don't know who needs to hear this?

Perimenopause, HRT & Me.......


Before I start, this is about my journey and in no way am I trying convince you to do the same or advocating for HRT. What I am advocating for is, for you to get all the information to make an informed decision that is right for you and your body.

I went to the Dr's last year, a month before I turned 45. I was low, tearful, my joints and muscles ached, I was getting more and more migraines, I had dizziness and felt light headed, sinusitis and just couldn't be bothered.

Having your own business and working by yourself, you don't have anyone to jeer you up, when you feel like cr@p. I had to act quick or risk losing the business I worked so hard to build.

I researched as much as I could, bought Dr Louise Newsome's book (menopause expert), to arm myself for when I went to my Dr's appointment, as I heard getting HRT could be a real battle. I asked to have an appointment with a Dr who had undertaken a Menopause course.

I was one of the lucky ones, my Dr was a real advocate for menopause and HRT. She didn't make me have a blood test (which are not always accurate anyway), she didn't try and find another reason for my symptoms, she gave me HRT straight away. I have estrogen patches and progesterone tabs.

After a couple of days, I was dancing around the kitchen high as a kite, the highs soon began to level themselves out and I started to feel like me again. I still get some symptoms but not as severe or as often.

There are other things that can really help to control symptoms-
Exercise
Breathe work
Resistance and weight training
Lowering alcohol intake.
Changing some aspects of our diet.

Again, I feel so lucky that I have the job I do as this has had a massive positive impact on my general wellbeing and mental health and I'm really grateful for that.

Get all the information you need as Knowledge really is Power. It's also really empowering taking control of what you and your body need.

Today is international drug awareness day!

I would like to talk about a different kind of drug addiction....

Cortisol.

Cortisol addiction can happen when we find ourselves in constant stressful situations e.g stressful job, abusive relationships, stressful family situation etc.

In the last few months I have come to realise, I am a Cortisol addict, from my previous relationship.

It's is a very complex issue, but here is a brief explanation.

Some of the signs of Cortisol addiction are
Insomnia and Fatigue.
Headaches.
Digestive problems.
Anxiety and Depression.
Irritability and Mood swings.
Brain fog

You produce cortisol when your brain feels like it's in danger- the fight, flight or freeze response. If you are in a situation were for whatever reason, your brain feels like it is in danger over a long period of time, you produce cortisol and you become addicted to it.

You end up living in a constant state of fight, flight or freeze and your brain starts to look for that next hit. Chaos and pain become what feels good. Feelings of peace and feeling safe become a threat (as safe doesn't produce cortisol) and might even feel boring to you.

Barmy ey, who knew?

Pilates can really help. in Pilates by Lynsey's session we focus on the breathe, mindfulness, relaxation and somatic movement (releasing trapped emotion), aswell as being a full body workout focusing on strengthening and increasing mobility.

Pilates and my job has really helped me over the last few months and for me personally, I could not do without it.
