Have you noticed better nails with bhrt?

Posted by seapen @seapen, Nov 18 7:59am

I just started bhrt 1.5 months ago. My nails are the strongest they have ever been. No soft peeling nails. No breakage. I am wondering if it is from the bhrt. I also started eating prunes for the boron and I am recoverimg from a broken wrist.

I also eat prunes and take HRT. Yes my nails, hair and skin are much stronger now.

Salmon oil helps strengthen my nails.

I have been taking fish oil every day for years and I have been eating salmon 3-4 days a week for years. My nails were thin and peeling. Now that I am on BHRT and eating prunes, my nails are teally think and long. I kerp having to file them down. I really hope that is a sign that my bones are getting stronger too!
