Shingles and HRT

Posted , 2 users are following.

I recently started HRT and immediately broke out in one of the worst cases of shingles I've had. I have had recurrent shingles for over 20 years and the vaccine (Shingrix) did not help at all. I'm just wondering if this has happened to anyone else and if it's related to the HRT.
