Hi I’m 78 and told too old for BHRT. May I ask your age when started? I was also told since I was never on HRT I wasn’t a candidate for BHRT,

I am 68. Never had any sort of hrt in the past. The bioidentical hormone estradiol patch is safe as well as the vaginal estradiol cream. Age doesn't matter for those. Of course you get the most benefit starting at a younger age, but most of us didn't know that 20 yrs ago, unfortunately.
Have a discussion of all risk factors with your Dr. Also look here for more posts on hrt and age. Lots of people here who are in their 70s use hrt therapy.
Good luck!!
