Dry Mouth Posted: 03-10-04 13:00pm
I went off of hormones cold turkey last
june and within 3 months my mouth was so
dry that my tongue stuck to the roof of my
mouth. After many tests, all negative, I
went back on hormones and improved
immediately. My ogbyn wants me to go off
slowly, and after one month of tapering
off, my mouth is producing less saliva
again. I am miserable! Does anyone else
out there suffer from this and do you have
a remedy for your dry mouth? I also
suffer from stress and anxiety. I woud
appreciate any imput.
I had no idea for months as to why I would
wake each night parched and dry. I
figured it was allergies that were causing
mouth-breathing. After a bout with eye
irritation that I later learned was from
dry-eye, I realized that all this dryness
was a menopausal condition.
Have to tell you that after 3 weeks on soy
and black cohosh vitamins I can sleep
without thrashing like mental patient and
my eye dryness is under control. (took 3
wks, though--doesn't work right away)
