@gravity3 Would love to know more!! What led you to start, what kind/dose, and what benefits? I was told since I had menopause in mid-40s that at 62 it was too late to start as menopause had been over 15 (nearly 20) years ago).

Other benefits:
Improved muscle mass retention.
No more senile purpura
Almost no urine leaking
Better sleep and mood.
That becausethe rule of thimb said higher risk 10 years postmenopausal. But even the drugs have a risk...i personalchoose the estrogenpatch for my risk... fingers crossed. @mayapath2health

I had sudden onset menopause at 38. At 76 I made my decision to start bhrt because I wanted quality over quantity for my remaining years of life. I did not start for bone support but understand that it can help. I wanted many of the other benefits primarily restored libido. I have a estradiol/testosterone pellet inserted every 12 weeks, I have vaginal estradiol as well as progesterone. I'll look up the doses and post. As far as risk.....life is a risk.
