I'm sure the body is sending a message, but I don't understand it. Indeed, it's very complex to the point where it's frustrating. Although I gradually noticed it 2 years ago, I've dismissed it as normal, thinking it might resolve by itself eventually.
Naturopath: I only went once in fall 2019. Someone referred her to me as being really good. I found out I wasn't eating enough protein, and my electrolytes were imbalanced. Thanks to her, I was able to have a successful pregnancy and have my son; otherwise, I was always too tired.
The reason I haven't gone back yet is because of the high fees and their inability to prescribe tests: it's reserved for doctors, and I just found out today that the "College des Médecins" is doing a witch hunt against alternative medicine practitioners. So anything she wants to figure out, I would have to go ask my doctor to prescribe it... Last time, he did not cooperate when she asked about a comprehensive hormone check.
My plan is to ask him to refer me to a dermatologist and an endocrinologist (let's see how many months I'll have to wait before seeing one), and from there, I'll schedule an appointment with her and bring all the previous tests/results. That will most likely happen only next year. And I must find time to read the book about Perimenopause that was referred to by other members.
