Hello, I am going back to the docs to talk HRT options, can anyone tell me if I am on the right track? My doctor is a trainee but is going to research my options and I know she is talking to someone experienced. I have read the NICE guideline and patient.co.uk info suggested, and have gatherered that
- HRT is indicated for prevention of osteoporosis (as I am under 45) even if symptom control not needed
- I need oestrogen only HRT (no womb, partial hysterectomy 5 years ago)
- Transdermal options safer for me (BMI over 30)
I am having evening sickness, joint aches (were quite bad for a bit), fatigue, hot flushes (only mild) and some emotional symptoms which are better with St Johns Wort already. I am happy to hear my options from the doc and choose, but wanted to know if I am thinking along the right lines if anyone has been in my position or knows about these things? TIA
