My Friend's Battle with Perimenopause: Heavy Bleeding, Anemia, and Hormone Therapy Challenges
from My Perimenopause Journey · host Excel with Mariana.
My friend went through intense perimenopause, experiencing years of heavy bleeding, severe anemia, and daily battles, feeling like she was bleeding to death. Eventually, she had her uterus removed. While the bleeding stopped, she instantly entered postmenopause in her late 30s. She was prescribed low-dose estradiol, but it provides limited bone protection and doesn't effectively prevent visceral fat gain. This is the advice I shared with her, and I believe it is important to share with you as well.Subscribe for bi-weekly updates on My Perimenopause Journey.
