absolutely, IUD can be problematic in so many ways - only mentioning it because I know people that have really been helped, but clearly it won’t work for everyone, and it comes at the risk of a potentially traumatizing experience with the insertion - many women experience excruciating pain during IUD insertion.

I also wonder if bio-identical estrogen could help stabilize and maintain estrogen levels and help with symptoms? I don’t know enough tbh, but it seems like women’s health needs more attention and better attention from experts.

Regardless, more women need to know there are options and that just toughing out menopause symptoms is not necessary anymore.
