I’m 39 and have been dealing with perimenopause for a few years but just recently was able to get my Doctor to see it. I work a high stress shift job so my cortisol is all over the place. My first Doctor prescribed me antidepressants but which worked for a little bit but ultimately wasn’t what I needed. My next Doctor told me I should do hormonal birth control which didn’t sit well with me. I didn’t need birth control and didn’t know why they were giving me that. I finally have a Doctor that prescribed me progesterone and will give me estrogen in 2 months when I go to see her in person for follow up on how the progesterone works for me. Thankful to have a community that helps us understand what’s going on in our bodies but definitely know I have more work to go. I definitely have the visceral fat sticking onto my belly but with the shift work and stress I’m not sure what to do about that.
