- Just a little catch up and update on how I’m getting on with HRT
Have any questions for me? Please ask, if I get enough questions then I will do a video next week.
😂😂 oh heck, the static granny pants story made me laugh xx
Hey lovely lady 🙏 thanks for the update I have been wondering how things have been going for you on your HRT journey 🙏 I think we all hope it’s a miracle cure and I’m told it is but there is a bit of juggling in the interim finding the right dose for you 🙏 I’ve just had my first review after 3 months, in the beginning I was like WOW all my symptoms improved to a certain extent and were far less severe but over the course of the 3 Mo this it platoed (can’t spell that) and I felt some symptoms especially hot flushes were creeping back! So I asked for an early review but my GP said I had to give it the full 3 Months and I knew he was right as had to let it fully get into my system, so my news is he upped my oestrogen to 2mg now so I am hoping that put me back on a high and I feel more relief from mood and hot flushes 🙏 I don’t get the itches as much as you 🥺 but I do get the hot flushes which are also unbearable! My glasses steam up 🤣 stick with it my lovely as you will get there 🙏 I am sure they will up the oestrogen for you when it’s time and I think it’s better for a gradual increase instead of an overload as helps your body adjust and gets the best results for you 🙏 keep your chin up my lovely and keep on pushing forward 🙏 I loved your funny story 🤣 hilarious! So to cheer you up and embarrass myself ….. I pulled in a pair of jeans I have worn the day before to rush to the shops and yesterdays knickers where in the leg (unbeknown to me 🙈) as I was walking around the supermarket they worked their way down the bottom of my leg and fell out on the shop floor!!!! Yesterdays dirty knickers on the floor in the middle of the supermarket 😳🤣🤣🤣 xxx sending loads of love your way and keep you chin up and know you truly are making the world of difference to so many people 🙏🙏🙏 xxxxxxx
Oh Caren, you have killed me with your story 😂 definitely something I would do 😂
Oh you are definitely right, I think I’m probably trying too many things all at once, but yes definitely giving it time to settle and adjust is the best thing in the long run. I am honestly so thankful for lovely ladies like you, sharing and encouraging me. It helps so much. 🙏🏼😘❤️
🤣🤣🤣OMG the granny knickers xx
Oh I know what am I like 😂
Hi Leanne I’m a new subscriber and really enjoying watching. I took HRT for around 8 years and never regretted it. I did try at one point stopping it and all my symptoms returned again. I could not cope with life without it and neither could anyone else cope me with haha . I’m pleased it’s starting to work for you and it does get better xx
Welcome Wendy 🤗 it’s so lovely to have you. Oh wow I bet that was scary bless you. I’m glad that it’s working, honestly it gives me so much hope, that with a little tweaking of the doses I will get there.
Thank you 🙏🏼😘❤️
Well my dear your honesty is refreshing. I’m 74 and I have now entered the second menopause never heard of it ..
and the dry skin is horrible and I smear every recommenced cream everywhere. Nothing working. Hugs
Oh bless you Liz, it’s never ending for us ladies is it. Oh yes the dry skin, I honestly don’t think I’ve ever used so many lotions in my life 🙏🏼😘❤️
Hiya leanne 💜 Thats a awful lot of supplements hun and I fully understand the desperation in trying anything that helps. One thing I will say is for me vitamin D works better in the drops I also have to take a calcium supplement. And I have vit C in those tabs you dissolve in water first thing in the morning. most vitamins work better with food so for me either with breakfast or lunch. Lots of water also I'm awful for remembering to drink water. For itchy scalp I use tgel and it does help me. And skin a good big tube of aqua cream its cheap in the chemist and I also use aveeeno cream. If any of this can help you or someone then its great to share. The pants story was brilliant. I once went shopping and my thong was hanging out of the bottom of one trouser leg thankfully a lovely lady said it half way round aldi I near died with embarrassment 🤣 Your so lovely have a great weekend Xx
Hi lovely 😊, oh I know I’m sure I’ve started to rattle 😂 oh ok so that might be a thing for me to try, maybe switching them to lunchtime too. The t gel unfortunately isn’t working.
Oh my goodness (the thong) although at least yours was not granny panties 😂🤣 the embarrassment is long lasting huh. Thank you for your lovely message 🙏🏼🙏🏼❤️
I think Leanne when the HRT gets in your system I think you will find the dry skin and all your other symptoms will hopefully lessens 🤞xx
Thank you Penny 🙏🏼😘❤️
You are doing a great job by sharing. Well done as its not an easy thing I’m sure to do . Hope you see some improvements to your symptoms soon thinking of your
Thank you Julie I really appreciate that 🙏🏼😘❤️

Oh bless you, thank you that’s such a lovely thing to say 🙏🏼😘❤️
My hair is thining my scalp is so itchy and my ears and legs all driving me nuts.. I cry every day its awful i thought i was losing my mind.. Im thankful for your videos and reading all the comments makes ya feel not so alone.
Oh Linda sweetheart I am so sorry to hear that, honestly that breaks my heart, you are in my prayers 🙏🏼❤️
It definitely Helps to know that I am not alone, I really appreciate all of the encouraging, beautiful comments. Just remember you are not alone lovely lady 🙏🏼😘❤️
Hello lovely Leanne great to c u you look so nice today so sorry u have got a lot still going on but u r not on your own we can all try and help each other as I said before I am on gel I have been on it now for about 5months and I am still trying to work it out just keep smiling 😊chin up big hug 🤗 for you 🌈uk
Thank you Jackie honestly you brighten my day with your lovely words. I think it’s going to be a journey of tweaking but hopefully we will get there, and I am so thankful that I have you lovely ladies by my side 🙏🏼😘❤️
I can relate to the hair thing and humidity mine is exactly the same xx
Oh it’s nuts isn’t it 🤣
I started my hrt around the same time as you. When I was at my GP I told her about my itching and dry skin and she also gave me Fexofenadine tablets and Ajax cream (think that's what it's called). The difference I've felt is amazing in my skin already - its definitely worth a try!
Oh thank you lovely, I will mention that. Hope that you are doing ok 🙏🏼😘❤️
You're such a good person Leannne, big hugs 🤗🤗
🤗🙏🏼❤️
Hi my name is kate but I use my husband's account lol, just watched you and I am going to tell you what I say to myself when I feel upset and really shit because I am 56 and just about in the full menopause (no periods for 6 months).I stand in front of the mirror and say come on kate you are going through the change of life,you are just getting older, if you don't get older that means you much be dead,come on you don't have cancer you just have a mix up with your hormones and it will all be ok in the end ,now this probably won't work for most women but it works for me when I am having a bad day,it sort of givez me a shake, also I think about all the women in the past before hrt and how they must of felt with no help. lovely as always to see you pop up on my phone ,have a lovely weekend kate. 🤗💖
Oh Kate you are absolutely right, I often have days where I am exactly like this but sometimes the pity days also creep in, it’s so lovely to know that I’m not alone in this and honestly I think we all need a kick up the bum now and then. Thank you 🙏🏼😘❤️
You have me in tears 😞
Oh sorry Jo 😘❤️
Question 🙋♀️ if you had to leave your home immediately and permanently, excluding family and pets, what three things would you take with you? xx
Great question thank you I will add that to my list for the video 🙏🏼😘❤️
I take menopace I have for years and they helped me .And the Balmonds skin range is really worth looking at for your dry skin. And the Yes range for dryness down below.X
Oh wow thank you I really appreciate you sharing this with me 🙏🏼😘❤️
@@mrs_leanne_jones I have a draw full of lotion and potions trying anything to help with all the blooming issues we suffer with . X
Yes me too, I just worry that in my desperation I’m not giving anything a good chance, plus I’m trying so many things it’s also hard to know what is or isn’t working 🤦🏼♀️ so any tips is like gold! Very appreciated lovely 😘🙏🏼❤️
Hi Leanne … no idea how old you are but you look so young! Shocked when you mentioned you were a grandparent… 😆 good luck with HRT & let’s hope you get some relief soon x
Thank you sweetheart, I am 43 🙏🏼😘❤️
@@mrs_leanne_jones no age at all & looks like you have a wonderful support system around you x
Thank you, I have a wonderful family, very blessed 🙏🏼😘❤️
Hi Leanne thank you for the update & lovely chatty vlog, you are so kind & considerate, you have such a warm heart. You probably have addressed this in an earlier video, but wanted to ask is the itching & dry patches definitely related to menopausal ? I don't know if you checked out with your GP, especially as cracked & sometimes bleeding from scratching, I was thinking eczema ? I never suffered from it as a child, but only in later life & was brought on by stress, so sore & itchy. Anyway I except you've covered all avenues, it was just a thought & maybe you could get a treatment on prescription ? Take care my lovely, sending hugs & prayers xx
Hi Clare, I actually haven’t, I have just assumed because it is a symptom, perhaps I should check. Thank you so much.
You are so very kind 🙏🏼😘❤️
Hi Leanne 👋 you are such a lovely lady who genuinely thinks of others apart from yourself , which is lovely to see , there isn't enough of us like that anymore . 💗
I think you are really doing well with your menopausal symptoms , truly hope you can resolve your itching/ dry skin .
I couldn't take any HRT as not suitable for me so I battled on , many days like a raving mad woman possessed . 🧟♀️.
Your videos really cheer me up loved your funny story 🤣 . Much love sweetie 💞
Ahh bless you Amanda, honestly that is such a wonderful thing to say 🥹🥰
Oh bless you, I can’t even imagine, I will have to remind myself that I am very blessed to be able to take HRT, great reminder on my bad days, thank you 🙏🏼😘❤️
Try chemist and talk to head pharmacy. Or doctor to se if they can send u to dermatology. They can find out what type of skin condition it is and give u the right treatment. Bless u.
Thank you I think that is a great idea 🙏🏼😘❤️
Hi there I have been taken hrt now since last December and it's been the best thing I ever done things do get better I had itchy skin and I started taking cod liver oil with vitamin d my dry eyes are better and skin is not itchy anymore, and the vitamin D has helped my mood hope this helps
Thank you so much Fiona, I really appreciate you taking the time to share with me 🙏🏼😘❤️
Hi its hard been like it for 8 years now no hrt works on me we will get there in the end i take it day by day
Bless you Jacqueline, definitely great advice 🙏🏼😘❤️
Hi Leanne xx
Hi Penny 😘
Oh bless you for mentioning me 🥰, thank you. I’m doing my Q&A video in the next couple of days, so I’ll have an answer to your question ❤.
That story was hilarious and yes that sounds like me 😂😂xxxx
Wow the end of your video, it was like you were talking to me 🥺, I burst into tears just listening to your kind words. I believe that everything happens for a reason and unfortunately that includes bad things, but im going to keep pushing myself to get through these bad times. My Izzie would want me to be happy and I also believe her life was sacrificed to help save others, as much as that pains me to say.
Izzie is my guardian Angel ❤️🌹❤️. Sorry if I have completely taken over your comments. Thank you for this lovely chatty video, I feel so much better now I’ve had a cry. ❤🌹❤️ xxx
Oh sweetheart, I don’t believe that everything happens for a reason, there is no good reason for you losing your beautiful little girl. I believe that through our pain and suffering can come good, you will be needed one day (if not already) to support/help someone going through a similar thing.
Your strength and courage is inspiring and I am so very thankful to know you.
I am really looking forward to your Q&A I am actually looking forward to catching up on some vlogs when I get home, the signal hasn’t been great here. Thank you for being you 🙏🏼😘❤️
