beautifulthailand99 Posted January 2, 2018 Share Posted January 2, 2018 Hi there my wife is 54 and menopausal - she had her last period about a year ago. For the last three years she has been on a mixture of Menopace and some Thai Herb capsules that cost about 200 baht for a 5 day supply. These have up till now done the job in holding off the symptoms which have mostly been mood swings , hot flushes , memory loss , bad taste in mouth and pain in the lower back. We know these have worked as she (at my recommendation tried to stop for a month to clean out her system ) went borderline mental without them. A couple of years ago she saw a male doctor at Bumrungrad that said she didn't need HRT just yet (she had blood tests etc) but if she felt the need that soy-isoflavones might help (this is the Menopace et al which she is on). Sadly we think that something stronger like HRT may help and we are dubious of going to the GP in the UK as most seem to have little clue except to google away. I the absence of any recommendations here we will go back to Bumrungrad and visit the doctor again so any recommendations would be most gratefully received. This is the doctor we saw before. The total cost of the blood tests , exam and x-ray was about 10,000 baht. https://www.bumrungrad.com/doctors/Pansak-Sugkraroek Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
poanoi Posted January 4, 2018 Share Posted January 4, 2018 i like oxandrolone, it doesnt ferment into estrogen or any other side effects, a single 10 mg pill in the morning will do you both good, and if you want to get stronger, take 5 pills Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
