Title: Im New
Post by: SONIAGREAVES on March 20, 2023, 01:36:49 PM

Hello everyone,

Im new here and would just like to say hello to everyone.  I am 47 years old and last night I started on Elleste Duet combo hrt tablets.  Its took 6months to make that decision, I had to start as was feeling very down and emotional, not sleeping due to hot flushes and felt generally like my life was finished.

Hello and welcome to the forum. So pleased you have found us. I can understand it can be difficult deciding on HRT. I hope it helps but just bare in mind it can take a few months to work so do not be disheartened if you are not seeing many changes just yet.

 :welcomemm: browse round. Makes notes ;-)

Why were you reluctant to begin HRT?  Replacement hormones can take a while to work, depending where your own hormones. might be.

Ask away!
