Hi Janisconfused
I am also 62 and am on HRT, I started taking it at 58. Although I do not absorb the patchs' or gel very well I do feel the benefit a little.Still also very fatigued, which may also be to other health concerns. I am on 4 x pumps a day and only last week had a reading of 182 with my results, at one point I was at 380 so we are wondering why the drop. Nonetheless GP says it is still a good result based on the protection for the bones and heart, which is paramount and definitely worth you going back on it. Have you had a Testosterone check? Low levels are also a factor for feeling unwell as well. My GP has said she will consider prescribing Testosterone for me as I am consistently having readings of <0.07. which is out of the normal range. I have zero sex drive, it was an issue with my ex husband and also a subsequent relationship and I do wonder had I had the hormones given to me back then, life may have been different. If it helps with middle weight gain and fatigue I am grateful for any help I can get, I just dont want to be feeling all the feels when I am no longer with a partner!!
