Menopausal Davina ‘like a drug addict’
DAVINA McCall has said she did not understand what was happening when she started going through menopause.
The TV star, who started going through perimenopause eight years ago at 44, said the symptoms reminded her of when she was a drug addict.
Davina told ITV’s Loose Women: “Nobody told me about it.”
She added: “Obviously I’m a reformed addict and I was waking up soaked in sweat, thinking, ‘ There’s something wrong with me, I’ve got the flu or a virus or something’.
“It really reminded me of when I was using and I really hated it... and mood swings, shouting at the kids.” She said hormone replacement therapy has helped her get through it.
