    Hi yasmin

    Get them! I'm on bhrt for 3 months, I'm 43 but have been in this boat since I was 16. If someone said you were diabetic or had some other chronic illness, we wouldn't question it and so I think of it as essential and not optional. Be good to yourself and treat the issue because you're worth it xxx

    I say try it and if it doesn't work, then get off of it.  But definitely give it a shot for a few months and see if it makes a difference.  We have to think of ourselves through all of this.  If we are happier then our loved ones are happier too. smile  Hugs.
