Hi! I think that there's a book in that story somewhere ;-) when you feel strong enough!
Don't worry about HRT. It isn't giving in that's for sure, any more than why we eat when hungry! H[ormone]R[placement]T[herapy] does what it says on the tin, gives some ladies back their life. Why suffer? It doesn't need to be for ever, except treatment for vaginal atrophy! Do read and make notes on that 1!
Do you have contact with anyone from 'back there'?
As oestrogen levels drop off muscles may become lax = aches and pains so do take a good pain relief. Also, the body may become dry: inside and out
- skin, deep in the ears, nostrils, scalp, eyes, vagina
- 4 me it was like razor blades up there!!
Have a browse round. Make notes whoops I've said that already
. We have a thread about doing 'stupid things'
.
Have you register with a GP, go along to see the Practice Nurse for a well woman check - BP, blood tests, urine test and discuss HRT. You may be tired as a reaction to the events or it could be low VitD levels.
Ask away.
