I don't know why doctors are happy to prescribe anti depressants willy nilly but not HRT!
My life was briefly horrible when the perimenopause kicked in and before I started HRT. Now I feel absolutely great again - all my energy back, on top of things, just normal, but now I appreciate normal so very much more.
I was reluctant to start taking any medication at first because I never have in the past. But now I am so glad I did. HRT has some risks but it is worth it.
And for ladies taking all sorts of other medication, surely these have risks too. As one of the other posts on one of the other sections says, lots of people take long term medication for high blood pressure, high cholesterol, joint pain etc.
If the ladies on this thread who are feeling so low haven't considered it very seriously, I can only offer my experience and say I hope that with or without HRT I hope you get your happier lives back very soon.
