Any women over 50 on HRT for symptoms?

Posted by nat1970 @nat1970, Feb 13 1:58am

I’m supposed to start hrt Im post menopause but still have some symptoms, and family history of osteoporosis and heart issues. I heard nightmares about some women having reactions to progesterone. Has anyone had a good experience?

I just restarted hrt at 74. Many reasons for getting back into it. I had many concerns due to my age but with scans and blood work that came back all good, it's now 1 month in. And my hair has now stopped falling out. So excited.
Last time with hrt 5 yrs ago, I stopped cold turkey.... DO not do that. Y have to slowly go off it.

The Mayo News Network has posted some great information on menopause. I found this article interesting.

Can we post about anything new that we've learned?
