I am restarting Bioidentical Hrt (topically) at 67. I took them from 47 -58.
Now that I've started everyone (docs) are very supportive.
You'll need to do all the reading first to determine if it is right for you. It was for me at this juncture.
You need to have labs done for baseline.
It would help if you had genetic testing to be sure you don't have risks of developing estrogen cancers.
I feel that having progesterone, estrogen, and testosterone all - is a must.
It's a pain in the butt again, but it's well worth it to build bone density and grow muscle again. Not to mention my waistline slimmed out over only a couple weeks and I look a lot less "maternal" and dried out!
I learned of the opportunity to do this again from this group. (so grateful!)
I am doing it as a supplement to my Tymlos/Reclast protocol.
It took me a bit to find a GREAT doc outside my health care system.
My conventional doc agreed to order the labs. My progesterone is covered and I will be applying to Medicare to cover the Bio-HRT. I called them and they said to do it.
My changes started fairly immediately. I have more stamina.
Men look interesting again! 😉
