00:00And I know, Carol, that you wanted to talk a little bit about your experiences and what kind of symptoms
00:04did you have?
00:05Yeah, well, I started probably in my early 50s. I didn't have, you know, they go, oh, I've got night
00:09sweats, hot flakes.
00:10I didn't have any of that. I started feeling anxious. I've never felt anxious in my life.
00:15You know, I run companies, I do all sorts of different things.
00:18And I started feeling anxious even about what trousers I was going to wear.
00:21Was I going to have a tea or a coffee? That developed into a deep depression.
00:27But what saved me really, and I mean a deep depression, I felt suicidal at times for many months.
00:34I kept a note of when my period started in my electronic calendar and that helped me analyse that.
00:42I started on a bespoke HRT and within 48 hours, literally within two days, I felt back to normal and
00:51I have never had a symptom since.
