Itching and menopause

Hi All, do any of you have a problem with seriously distracting itching that appears to have no cause, so I am putting it down to (peri) menopause. It’s driving me insane, and my GP’s best suggestion was antihistamines and good moisturiser. FFS!!!

Yes! And if I wear my yoga pants, it’ll make me itch. I’ve been applying a lot of lotion. Sarna is great but it smells like menthol. 😵‍💫

Yes!! Driving me crazy at the moment. Hoping it’s also changing weather and it will settle. Worst on legs for me. Have just got some ‘this works’ sleep moisturiser with magnesium to try as it was on offer (pricey though but am a bit desperate!).

I’m 48. Random Neck, shoulder, leg itching over here. SMH

What? That’s menopause? I just thought it was a random thing. I get little random itches and think it must be some fuzz. Or a bug, or maybe a nerve getting weird on me.

I missed a period 2 months ago then had one the next month this month no period yet just feeling crampy and like my periods going to come but nothing yet, sleepy as Heck! Sore breast I took a test but was negative then a couple of days later I wound up spotting for a little then it stopped thought it was my period but nothing do you guys think it’s pregnancy or menopause my hormones have been sooooo off since my 2nd daughter which was a year and a half ago they never went back normal
