New to perimenopause and not conceiving

I am not having a good time. I’ve conceived my daughter without problems. We decided to try for a second one almost one year ago and my period and myself felt different. I said a couple of times that I’ve had perimenopause symptoms but my partner, friends, family and gps didn’t listened. After being disregarded a couple of times in my surgery. We found out by going private that my AMH is lower for my age. I have used letrozole twice as my ovulation has become not reliable. Is anyone in the same boat? Last month was my birthday (37) and I feel very down and angry at myself. Has someone been in my situation successful? No one that I know is in the same situation as me , I feel so lonely..

Go get some progesterone cream at any of the natural grocery store. Use it everyday except for when you have your period. Dr Lee talks about this in his perimenopause books. This will help in so many ways !! I’ve heard so many women get pregnant when using this. It shouldn’t be a secret but it is and doctors hide it or don’t even know it’s insane ! We have to start educating ourselves and taking charge of our own bodies and health. You can also order this online but when I took it in my 40s it was life changing and I realized I’d needed it my whole life and is why I couldn’t get pregnant for years !

They’re basically all the it’s made from yams …pretty sure they all are. It’s natural and very very potent. I’ll find a pic online of what I’ve used and post here shortly. I’m telling you it saved my life because in my 40s (I’m 56 now) I had so so many horrible symptoms as my estrogen dropped which is what perimenopause is ….and I’d notice it change my attitude with in 20 min of using it and kept thinking this can’t be my imagination …then I found out progesterone is the “happy hormone” read that in Suzanne Somers book. It helped me with depression, anxiety, regulated my periods, energy ….but also revved up sex drive like crazy …warning. ☺️

I’ve heard women tell me that when they started taking it they got pregnant in their 40s unexpectedly…that’s why your post triggered me sharing all of this. Good luck !

Is the liletta IUD making me hormonal

I had the IUD placed in February 2026 and I haven't had any major hormonal issues until now. I started my period June 22nd then stopped June 29th I started spotting again July 2nd and it felt like I was starting my period all over again I'm cramping but my hormones have been off the hook these past couple days I feel so emotional like I want to cry and I don't know why then I feel good then I feel like I want to cry I can literally feel my hormones shifting it's beyond uncomfortable. I'm not spotting anymore but still cramping and feeling sad

Help?

I’m 38+2 right now and for the past couple days I’ve been getting like hot flashes randomly and then shaking like im cold when im not. I’ve had some (i believe) prodromal labor cramps for 2-3 days, loose stool, kinda disoriented at times (mainly when i have the flashes), and insane pelvic pain/pressure. Anyone else have the same? How do i get it to go away? Besides water lol, i know thats everyone’s go to for a reply 😂
