I'm feeling nauseous and I'm losing my appetite. I'm also experiencing dizziness and I just don't feel like the same person anymore. Can you help me?

Lowering oestrogen can affect the mood quite dramatically and also affect blood pressure which could give rise to the dizziness.

However, it is important to get this checked out by your doctor just to rule out any other underlying cause.

In the meantime, you may find a soya supplement, such as Menopause Support, helpful as this is traditionally used to gently raise and balance oestrogen which, in turn, can help ease the symptoms.

It does take about 4-6 weeks to kick in though. You could also try a cup or two a day of ginger tea to ease the nausea.
