"Something has to be done"

RobertKK

The menopause needs to be treated as a natural process.

Trouble is when you come off HRT you will inevitably get these symptoms, there's no avoiding it.

Nearly time for Darcy to play the intro to Little House on the Prairie.

We are in medical territory here... it's NOT your call Joe.

RobertKK

HRT were a F1 team, Joe will get as far as they did.

"the lady who made light of it yesterday"?? So nobody is allowed a positive experience of Menopause?? We ALL have to suffer and say we suffer??

I wasn't allowed HRT as my mother had breast cancer age 64 (after 20 years of HRT (I presume it was a factor)..........and I pretty much got through Menopause without a glitch. Yes I got symptoms, no doubt about it, but in light of many other serious life threatening illnesses I've seen other people have I felt it was just part of life! Exercise helps hugely and watching your weight.

The symptoms can be tough, I had severe nonstop bleeding etc which had to be treated, sweating, brain fog earlier which has now mostly cleared. But you get through this stuff.

“No one mentioned the menopause”, did she not know herself?

I've been with all those consultants... menopause had little to do with most of it.

Actually this cold weather is great for hot flush time.

Had de bowel perforation.

yeah i know and I'm not making little of them, a lot of my friends had a far worse time than me. I have 3 sisters and we all seem to have got through menopause very lightly. No bleeding, no bloating, no drenching sweats, no mood swings ........ in fact it was a huge relief from awful PMT every month and mood swings when I was younger. Happier now but yes I am probably very lucky and all my sisters too!

Glad you're ok, you do get through it, and being positive and active helps.

An Claidheamh

Seriously enough with this "I must be heard" nonsense!


What does she want the medical profession to do, find a cure to ageing?

Are they not educated enough?

The medical profession do not exist to listen to nonsense like this

They need to cop on

No doctor ever said "your poor body" at any time during the stuff I went through

"Gynaecological" is what can be put on very. Workplace just want to know if symptoms are consistent.

I was nearly ready to stop a bus once, I was near the back and the bus was very bouncy and I was getting car/bus sick but luckily I managed to make the journe without embarrassment.

This woman has it bad.

oh jaysus this is all a bit much, blood flowing out of her. (been there once in white trousers on a date!!) Do we really need this?

Oh God I am so old fashioned, I prefer when certain things are not discussed on daytime radio............is this not for a doctor's appointment to be spoken with in privacy and confidence? My GP is a woman so I can talk to her about anything without embarrassment. Why would you ring Joe Duffy and tell him?!!!

2smiggy

what are the palmarians up to these days ? all is forgiven

Blood loss can be fairly massive, but often it can be remedied by simple procedures. Having private insurance helps speed things up a bit.

Doctors will be overwhelmed with Joe’s HRT campaign.

PMT was the worst thing ever... menopause a breeze by comparison. Also a breeze by comparison to the decades of colitis, surgeries etc.

CH3OH

CH3OH

Versatis patches might possibly help, but where would you stick apply them?

Over de ovaries?

Jeff2

The patches were not unavailable but not being prescriped so people needed to buy them.
Some giving out sounded like they could afford the money to pay for them.

But Joe made out no one could have them.

An elderly friend of mine is getting her second vac tomorrow morning so I'm going to go and help in her garden at 2 while she relaxes so a no Joe show for me thank feck.
Knowing my luck it'll start pissing rain at half one.
