Pepperminty that all sounds good & I agree we need a lot more research & understanding of this phase of life. With the dry eye, I'd begun to think I was the only one who'd found T helps & yet research suggests there does seem to be an association, either with the decline in T or an imbalance between E&T. A lot of women post on here that dry eye syndrome is a problem for them at menopause but you're the first I can remember (other than me) who's said supplementing with T has helped their DES. I wonder whether the effect is more obvious in those of us who've had oophorectomies &/or for whom the DES is severe. Whatever - I'm pleased it's helping you & it feels important to raise awareness of its lesser known effects on here, especuially as DES is not just a matter of discomfort, but can progress to damage the eye if not well managed.
