Hi there,
Its so good to come across this site! This type of experience can be very isolating.
Can anyone recommend a good endocrine specialist in Melbourne?
Also, if anyone lives in Melbs and has a shared experience of early menopause - I would love to get in touch.
I am 35 and I am trailing HRT - 4 months of painful swollen breasts has not been fun.
Cheers,
Jo
Hi Jo,
It's so great to have you as part of the AEMN community - a warm welcome! Yes, being in EM can be very isolating. I hope that connecting with other women experiencing EM will bring you some support and comfort.
I suspect that the Jean Hailes Foundation in Melbourne (9562 7555) and/or the Melbourne IVF Clinic (9416 3862) located in Epworth Freemasons Hospital would be able to recommend a good enocrine dr.
All the best with your ongoing HRT trial - finding hormonal balance is rarely a smooth ride. Please feel free to email through or post on the forum any other specific questions you may have.
Thoughts and best wishes,
Tanya
Hello again Jo,
I hope that you are having a good week. I have made contact with another member of AEMN who lives in Melbourne. She is very happy to connect/communicate with you r.e EM etc. If you're still interested, please email me at earlymenopause@yahoo.com and I can introduce you both via email!
Take care,
Tanya
Hi Jo and Tanya,
I'm living in Melbourne and experiencing premature menopause at 32. My diagnosis was 6 months ago and I've just started getting my head around it.
I would be keen to meet up with others going through the experience as there doesn't seem to be in any official support groups around! I think it's really important to connect and share the experience.
Anyone is welcome to email me - vegematarian@gmail.com
Kirsty :-)
