Is hrt a good option after Evenity

In this video, Dr. Hardwick-Smith, an obgyn, talked about the timing of HRT - when to start, when is too late and when to stop. She gave a brief summary of WHI study and discussed the risks of heart disease, clotting, stroke, alzeheimer associated with hrt therapy. From my personal experience, I didnt encounter any "resistence" because of my 11-year post menopausal status although my obgyn wanted a cardiologist's clearance. Breast cancer risk was thoroughly evaluated and yearly mammogram is a must. My prescriptions are filled at a major drug chain store with copay $10/mo, or $20/3mo after deductible.

Are you taking progesterone? If so would you mind sharing the brand? I have been on progesterone for many years that I get from a compounding pharmacy in the form of a troche. Would be much easier to get from drug chain. Thanks

@mayblin Thanks so much for posting this video and all your previous posts. I watched one of Dr. Susan's previous videos which I found very informative and reassuring. It was great she discussed Progesterone in this video as I'd never heard any specific reference to it before. -- so reassuring to know it is distinct from Estrogen without the same concerns, though I feel very safe and confident with the Estrodiot patch and micronized Progesterone at age 67, 12 years post menopause.
