Anyone started HRT and then stopped by choice?

Anyone started HRT given it nine months noticed very slight changes, main change being no vaginal dryness and then decided to stop because the changes weren't big enough so what’s the point?

I've made other changes in my life that I think are "maybe" helping more.

I'm just interested to hear these stories as I mostly hear the life changing positive stories.

Thank you

I started, then stopped, then started again because it’s not just about symptoms, it’s about prevention of osteoporosis, heart disease etc too.

I tried it for nearly a year, principally because I was suddenly struggling with anxiety, which I'd never experienced before. After a while I felt that the side effects of weight gain and hair loss outweighed the benefits. Never regretted stopping.
