I had a quick read through the paper and it is really comprehensive and helpful for us.
I only hope every GP in the country reads this. So much positive evidence of the long term benefits of using HRT. The risks of HRT are also put into perspective so will help us make better decisions about benefits versus risks when considering HRT use. All very exciting.
Hurdity, I will be very interested to hear your thoughts when you have had a chance to study it fully. I'd love you to highlight the key things that your feel are important.
I do hope that World Menopause Day will be reported on the news or at least a programme done to look at this new 'paper' and it's findings. Society needs to be better educated about the problems menopause brings.
Not that long ago contraception and especially The Pill was a new and highly controversial issue but is now a normal part of life for every person to address and manage. Menopause and effective treatment for it's symptoms and consequences needs to gain the same attention and acceptance - World Menopause Day is a step in the right direction.
