you could get your hormone levels tested - estrogen and progesterone and if you are low you could get natural hrt products such as wild yam for estrogen replacement and natural progesterone cream for progesterone replacement

I’m on hrt and an antidepressant for it. It is a horrible condition and the anxiety can take over your life and make you miserable... did you check with a specialist? I ran from one doc to the next and slowly feeling better after 3 months on hrt and almost 6 weeks on the antidepressant..... hope you are feeling better by now. I see this post is about a month old. All the best. Xo

Yes! I suffered from depression and anxiety throughout perimenopause and had chest pains that were never diagnosed. It was not related to my heart and no one could figure it out.

I’m 49 and my levels are apparently not there yet, but terrible anxiety for past two years especially before and during periods. (And periods have become awful!)
