Hi I wander if you could help me. I am 48 years old and going through the Perimenopause. Its actually horrendous, low mood for approximately 21 days per month, irregular periods with bleeding lasting up to 2 weeks. Blood work shows very low progesterone. I started taking 50 mg of Bioidentical progesterone and that didn't help so have increase it to 100mg. I am also taking B12, B6, Vit D, Zinc and 100mg of 5 Htp. I have had DNA testing and know that I do carry the Gene for Depression and problems metabolising B12.
I have tried to book a appointment with yourself however I am based in Australia.
Thank you for your time in reading this message.
