Unfortunately, the Women’s Health Initiative back in the early 2000’s influenced physicians to not use HRT for post menopausal women. I believe many women suffered after this flawed study and there are still physicians out there that have not updated their knowledge base. Very frustrating for women and my hope is that my daughter and granddaughter will have better care than I do as they age. I feel like I am fighting with my rheumatologist and gynecologist. Have an appointment with an endocrinologist a few counties away, but it isn’t until 2026 he is so busy. Hoping I can stay stable until then.
