I am 77 and after reading the risks associated with starting HRT at my age, had kind of backed away from it. Would love to hear more as to why you started at 76, and what benefit you have noticed so far. Maybe I should reconsider...

Just a note... I've had a hysterectomy. I also have Osteoporosis that has been treated with meds for 10 years.
I pursued bhrt because I was sick of having no libido! I also wanted to see if it would help in other ways. It has been great for my libido....my 73 yr old husband now does the testosterone pellet. I have no urine incontinence now, no vaginal dryness and atrophy resolved. Helped with brain fog. No senile purpura anymore. I was going for quality not quantity of life. I will not know if it is helping with Osteoporosis because I will continue meds but that was not my goal with the bhrt. Best of luck.
