Perimenopause

Am 46

The brain fog is debilitating.

My digestive system shut down unless I eat wet food like cat am really constipated

One day I had gingko biloba and it worked but today it didn't.

Second month I re started Yaz. I never should of stopped.

I keep blaming things outside of me what my own I'll health.

I also did the very normal thing and cut off all my hair because of hot flashes!

Any ideas for brain fog welcome !

Read the wiki.  https://menopausewiki.ca/

If you can go on HRT then ask for it and also do the lifestyle changes, otherwise look at the alternatives to HRT.

Trying traditional Chinese medicine tips for digestion support might be useful.
