🌪️ Hormonal Depression: When My Hormones Change, I Change! 🌪️

💡 Have you ever felt like a completely different person because of your hormones? 

You’re not imagining it. One woman’s powerful journey through postnatal depression, PMS, and perimenopause reveals the hidden link between hormones and mood. 🧠💔

🔥 Key Takeaways from Charne's Story 🔥

🔹 Hormones Can Be the Hidden Culprit 

Charne thrived during pregnancy but plunged into depression, anxiety, and rage after childbirth—each time at the 4-month postpartum mark. 🤯💢

🔹 Antidepressants Didn’t Help 

Instead of relief, she experienced paranoia, night sweats, and worsening insomnia. 💊

🔹 Progesterone Therapy Changed Everything 

Within 12 hours of using Cyclogest (progesterone), she felt normal again!😱👏

🔹 Oestrogen Was the Missing Piece 

Over time, she needed HRT with both oestrogen and progesterone to keep symptoms at bay. ⚖️✨

🔹 Hormonal Depression is Real 

If antidepressants haven’t worked for you, HRT could be the answer. Menopause, PMS, PMDD, and postnatal depression all have hormonal roots. 🌊🌀

💡 What This Means for You 💡

✅ If you’ve struggled with PMS, PMDD, or postnatal depression, your mood changes could be hormone-driven. 📉😞

✅ Antidepressants aren’t the only option – Many women need oestrogen & progesterone to feel stable. 🌿💊

✅ HRT Can Help During Perimenopause & Beyond – If your symptoms return as you approach menopause, don’t suffer in silence! 🚀👩‍⚕️
