Yes. I had essentially given up trying after being told by three doctors it would be dangerous and inappropriate to go onto HRT at my age (66), 24 years after menopause. That just frightened me off. Then, bizarrely, I had to see a cardiologist this year and he is the one who suggested I try HRT. He referred me to a general practitioner who specialises in menopause. So you really have to go doctor shopping for HRT, despite the fact it is increasingly regarded as first line treatment for osteoporosis. Its madness.
