Does a Mirena IUD work similarly to BC tabs in perimenopause? I am guessing not because it releases only progesterone and not estrogen, right?

@heatherhirschMD 3 года назад

You are right in thinking it is different. Check out my video on why to use and IUD in Perimenopause, that might help you better understand the differences.

@PR-td2iu 3 года назад

Oh yes-I had this question as well. Thank you for asking and, Doctor, thank you for answering. 👍👍

If I have the Mirena, can I also take bc like seasonique at the same time?

@rachellewhite4054 10 месяцев назад

I am in peri menopause, and have had back-to-back IUD’s (Mirena) since 2014. I haven’t noticed any improvements. In fact, I went from no periods, now periods every 2 weeks. 😭

I just turned 44 .My periods were always on spot ,but from this April suddenly I started having hot flashes, night sweats and disturbed sleep. All together was very overwhelming and emotional for me .I had always taken care of my health and mom had her perimenopause at 48 and hit menopause at 53.This unexpected drama has hit me hard. I did my blood test and it's shows I am in premenstrual phase. But my periods is delayed by 5 days ,going through cramping . Feels like I have been hit by a wrecking ball

Thank you so much for helping women in menopause! I hit the menopause symptom jackpot and have every symptom! I’m 48 and started perimenopause around 44 it’s been rough! Bc did not work for me it made all symptoms worse. I had the iud put in (Merena) and it’s been 3 months and is so much better. It has not been helping my complete loss of libido.

@crazy4cocoapuff 2 года назад

Thank you so much for talking about hormone therapy during late Peri. I have been told I am not ready for any HRT twice because my period comes every 25 days or so (even though now, at age 48, that it's very light and has tapered down to 24 hours vs 5 days of bleeding 6 years ago, which had akways been like that my whole life). I have theorized the docs are afraid to treat me due to very low risk antiphospholipid antibodies in which my rheumatologist said I can absolutely take HRT at the lowest dose needed to control my symptoms. I have not had a clot and do not have the dx of antiphospholipid antibody syndrome and yet they put that down in my EMR as a dx. I also have MSH6 Lynch (high risk for endometrial CA esp. High after age 50 and up) and have not had a hysterectomy yet because I have horrible sensitivity to hormone changes and due to their reluctance to treat me with hormones I am terrified that they would severely under treat me after a prophylactic hysterectomy and oopherectomy. As of now, my endometrial lining is never thicker than 5-8mm. I have intense brain fog, joint pains, back pains, fatigue, anxiety, night sweats, mild hot flashes, and decreased strength of orgasm and decreased lubrication and worsening muscle weakness as well as irritated, itchy vulva ..all of this started Sept 2021. I had always had bad PMS but it has now started happenning all month long except the week before ovulation (though many of my cycles are anovulatory as far as basal body Temps tracking goes). Everything I read about HRT according to NICE guidelines says I should get some sort of HRT and this is why I theorized that the docs are petrified to treat me. I forgot to add that at age 46 I was diagnosed with Osteopenia. I feel estrogen would greatly help symptoms of mine and help reduce my risks of osteoporosis and colon cancer that I have.

Hello, just had my yearly with my fairly new gynecologist. I am 46 an in early perimenopause. After genetic testing, I have the ATM gene that my provider is concerned may cause breast cancer. We are discussing a Morena IUD. I did track my symptoms and discussed them with my provider.

@eyeswideopen4680 2 года назад

Has anyone gotten horrible symptoms like 10-14 days before their period. Fatigue, cold sensitivity, and just feeling awful. If so, what do you do to help your symptoms besides BC?How old were you when you started with these symptoms? How do you know your definitely in perimenopause?

@poo9305 2 года назад

I do. I did the terrible non eating diet life in my teenage to just before 30s so I have a lot of issues started happening in my already 32 ish and got worse in 40s. I am 44 now and boy...I have so much worse everything...almost always having pms symptoms for good 2 weeks then probably feeling somewhat normal for about one week.. When I didn't know anything better what the hell happened to me almost feel so sudden around my mid 30s, countless doctor visits and tests started no joke..Well I am aware now that I have been suffering from perimenopose since my 32ish. It's on and off of terrible situations but over all you have not having any same body situation that you had in 20s. I just do natural way like take supplements for it, more efforts for good diet but there is still no miracle tho but I don't want anything chemical meds so try to change and adjust lots of things in your life like you became something else different seriously lol..

Every video out there is about low progesterone! What if you very recently had Mirena IUD to control adenomyosis symptoms, and now you just feel tired and sleepy like a teenager, what would that be? 1) Body adapting to Progestin dose 24/7? 2)Or progesterone still on the low side? 3)or tipping on the slightly high side? 🤔 Can you make a video focusing on symptoms of higher than normal progesterone?

@candacesalazar3963 2 года назад

I'm so glad I came across your video! I am on my second period in a month and it won't stop. I am 45. My doctor put me on progesterone to slow down the bleeding but it isn't working. She keeps telling me to get a hysterectomy due to prolapse and irregular bleeding. We have been trying for a baby but I think it's time to give it up and treat my perimenopause like you said with birth control. I don't know if I am ready in my mind to do the hysterectomy.

@tinaq1376 11 месяцев назад

I have undergone the same thing 4yrs ago (I'm turning 49 next month), super strong periods/bleeding. I just managed the anemic side effect of bleeding by eating green and leafy vegetables and taking liquid supplement which helps in blood health improvement. The important thing is you keep your hemoglobin up. After this, more on hot flashes and brain fog. I was having a hard time at work and stress triggered anxiety episodes, palpitations, talkabout whirlwind of things happening within your body. My OBGYN suggested scraping of my uterus wall due to blood (due to wall thickening) whenever I have urinalysis (with all else checked) but I declined. I will try the birth pills and see what happens.

I already get hot flashes and night sweats and the other unpleasant signs of doom but I can't take hormonal supplements because I have high blood pressure. What are my other options when hormones are off the table?

@susie-q1630 2 года назад

I'm 52 and suffering in perimenopause. My worst symptoms are moods, anxiety, palpitations, insomnia. I have irregular periods and doctors I've seen in my area won't prescribe estrogen because I'm still having periods and don't have hot flashes. All they give me is progesterone which causes a ton of water retention and hunger. What can I do?

@melissalee1709 2 года назад

Any thoughts on using Estroven plant based pills? My MD wouldn't give me anything else due to my chronic hormonal migraines because she said any extra estrogen could up my stroke-risk. For the most part, the pills seem to have really helped with the hot flashes and most of the mood swings but my migraines have been a challenge. I also got prescription strength migraine meds I take occasionally.

@cherubsenecey9118 2 года назад

Hello Dr. Hirsch, Thank you for your educational video. I hope you're able to address my questions. Would any nutritional supportive supplements (vitamins, minerals, NAC, ALA, RLA), naturopathic hormonal balancing supplements, and/or any Rx interventions delay the onset of menopause? Second, Is there any guarantee that a partial hysterectomy, would provide my body a lifelong, adequate supply of estrogen/other applical hormones from the remaining ovaries or ovarian tissue, that I need if I'm already in the perimenopause stage? Thank you

Hi there, i love your video. I am on day 3 of taking progesterone cream, not an order by the doctor, but just me trying out different things, because all my gyno could recommend was take the pill, this pill was ultra low dose, but even then, it gave be such high blood pressure and spotting everydaym i felt dirty, and had PMS everyday on that pill. Reason is, since i gave birth to my 3rd chid at age 35, i started to have night sweats every night. i thought i had cancer. My periods then became so heavy i couldnt leave the house. i would soak through pads and tampons every hour. Now that i am 39, i still suffer heavy bleeding, and clots, the clots are getting bigger unfortunetly, almost the same size as the palm of my hand!!! i have had to dea with really bad anemia for years now, and its wearing me out. SO i though i would try to find a treatment by myself, since pill doesnt work. DOnt know if this will work. I have had PMDD, i found that taking multi vitamins and minerals helped my moods a bit better. I also have zero sex drive.

This is literally like I wrote this. I had my son at 33 and have been going through exactly the same thing.

I had an ultra sound and test, no polyps, can’t do Ablation because you uterus is too small apparently also both my PCM and OBGYN said my only option is Full hysterectomy add to go on HLT which I don’t want to do. My dr just put me on lo loestin FE to see how that works but I haven’t been on birth control in years so I’m really nervous (I start tomorrow) about the side effects. It’s been a nightmare.

I still get a period each month which is normal for a couple of days but lingers lightly for 10+ days lately. A year ago my doctor put me on progesterone (Started at 100 but moved to 200 nightly) which has helped a lot with the symptoms of sleep, anxiety, headaches, and brain fog. He also has me taking supplements vitamin d/k2, magnesium to name a few. I have a decent diet and exercise 5x a week. Lately I feel the symptoms of anxiety, brain fog, lower libido sneaking back in. I have a doctors appointment in May. Should I ask about estrogen? What conversation would you recommend I have with my doctor? I haven’t found the best doctor for me yet (If that exists in my area) but he’s not bad.

Thank you for an informative and interesting video. I am 46 years old and am perimenopausal and was just prescribed HRT today for the very first time by my fantastic and trusty woman's health doctor/GP. I am about to start on Estrogel (2 pumps nightly, preferably) and Prometrium 100mg tabets ( taken for 12 days per month on 6th to 17th starting in Feb). Im nervous to start but excited to hopefully see my terrible symptoms subside and/or improve.

I am 39 and last year i started having horrible heat flashes, night sweats, insomnia and anxiety. I have been put on the pill and it's been 9 months since i got these symptoms. I was avoiding the pill because my mom had breast cancer but i had to take these to remain functional (i was on the verge of quitting my job). I still live in constant fear of getting the big c. Please make a video on this.

The vaginal thinning/dryness/cracking, the depression, anxiety, feeling like I'm walking in a daze, dry skin, dry lips (on my face), the fatigue, the fewer and less days of periods, the tingling in my feet (not all the time), the introversion, night sweats, insomnia, waking up drenched in sweat, joint pain, muscle tension, brain fog. Just to name a few Anyone have any suggestions? Can this be perimenopause at 41??? Please any suggestions would be greatly appreciated. This is no way to live!!!!

@LT-pp1je 11 месяцев назад

This perimenopause state is extremely confusing in terms of management options. Dr told me my only options are 1. Low dose birth control pills which I don’t want to take due to stroke, blood clots risks. I had mini stroke during pregnancy 19 yrs ago and it still scares me. 2. Nuvaring, vaginal ring. Once again I prefer not to use synthetic hormones. She said no I can’t just double the dose of pharmaceuticals bioidentical estrogen gel and progesterone pill (promethium). It’s still too low of dose. I’m at a loss what my options are. I read comments that perimenopause women are taking bioidentical hormones. So I assume they’re seeing functional medicine people and getting compounded hormones?? This functional medicine route seems pricey since you have to get all these labs /tests done and insurance doesn’t cover visits. How much do you spend? I heard issue with compounded hormones is it’s not regulated so no guarantee dosage you’re getting is accurate. They focus too much on testing vs focusing on how your body feels/reacts to the hormones.

Hi Dr Hirsch, could you please tell me if it's technically possible to be in early perimenopause at age 52? My doctor prescribed the birth control pill for perimenopause but I haven't started the treatment yet because I'm wondering if it's truly possible at my age. I'm a non smoker but exposed to public second hand smoke (live in Europe). My periods are regular and have been heavy for a couple of years now due to uterine fibroids. Thank you for your helpful feedback and congratulations on your videos!

@heatherhirschMD 3 года назад

Hi and thank you! The average age of perimenopause in US is 47.5 and menopause is 51.5, but that is just the average. I have women who are not in menopause until age 55 - which means you could be in perimenopause. Since I have not seen you personally, that is what makes it harder to say, but age wise is a definite possibility

@twinklestar1367 3 года назад

@@heatherhirschMD thanks for your feedback Dr. Hirsch. It's so confusing as a patient in the world of perimenopause. I tried micronized progesterone day 15 to 25 for 6 months but no change in heavy bleeding due to fibroids. Next doctor says try birth control pills with combined estradiol and progestin to to block ovaries and hopefully reduce the heavy menstruation. Another doctor says I'm too old at 52 to go on the pill and should just treat fibroids with embolization. It's difficult to know who is right... Tough being in perimenopause and unable to set up an appointment with you. This video has helped me better understand my options, nonetheless! Thank you for your uplifting demeanor.

My (Follicular Range) FSH was 4.6 and my Estradiol was 22. Is this something I should be worry about due to my Estradiol was near the lowest normal limit? I have a prescription for Microgestin 1/20. If I am not going to take the 7 placebo pill, will I still get my period?

@heatherhirschMD 3 года назад

Check out my video on how to interpret your labs. that low FSH is suggestive of pre-menopause and estrogen fluctuates.

@agquaproductions9361 2 года назад

My doctor told me that your levels are not created to be completely stable (especially women), because it is actually dangerous to not give your receptors and your body a break from the hormones. Your hormones are either going up, or they are going down. The increase is great, but it’s natural and even safe for those “down periods”. Hence why pregnancy and contraceptives increase the risk of blood clots, constipation, etc”
