Fitness ladies and managing peri

I’m 44, gaining weight and exhausted all the time. I’m due yet another blood panel in a few days and hoping they test for Ferritin and B12.

I was once a very active person and I’m sluggish and gaining weight; started Oestrogel and am on 200mg progesterone 12 days a month. I think the balance is off, getting that checked end of the month too.

I’m interested to hear from women who managed to regain their energy and fitness after starting HRT. I know everyone is different but keen to hear what worked for you.

I’m just so so so tired all the time, even my 10k steps per day will wipe me out for two hours.
