    Yes and how refreshing to hear them talking about the benefits of HRT. For too long so many women have avoided it because of media reports and negative stories.I know it's not for everyone especially if you have breast issues etc but for a lot of women it's a life saver.I.ve been on it 23rd and came off for 3 month's last year as had to have lower limb surgery so didn't have any option,it was a nightmare all the symptoms returned very quickly. Glad to say I'm back on it and never coming off it.I had surgical menopause at 30 due too total hysterectomy HRT has given me my life back.Dont be afraid of it ladies it really can help at this time of life.

      It's a personal choice I think for any woman to make and it's just not for me as I have high risk stroke and I'm not going to add anything else to that risk factor either I nursed my dad he was only 53 and was like a vegetablesad

      That's very understandable for anyone with risk factors it wouldn't be suitable for.Just so many women have suffered the awful effects of menopause because of horror stories they've read or heard.You are right it's a very individual decision that has to be made once you weigh up the risks and benefits and can also take time to find the right treatment for you.Just don't discount it through fear of what other people say do you're research and then make decision if it's advantageous for you or not.Good luck ladies on whatever is the right thing for you.

      I wasn't given anything after hysterectomy and within a month I was bedridden with joint pain.I was 30 with 2 daughters and was refused hrt as back then they didn't understand the benefits only the risks.Long story short within a year I was on it and could run around do anything I wanted but have been left with osteoarthritis due to no hormones for a year.Now at 58 I have had numerous operations on my hands, feet, at moment waiting for knee replacement.It is genetic my mum is 80 and has osteo but never had surgery as she went through normal menopause.I on the other hand have had 5 operations in the last 7 years and many more to come.I am now disabled and need crutches to walk any distance I only wish I was given hrt sooner and just maybe I would not have degenerative joint disease to the extent I have.I am now being tested for osteoporosis too.

      I have had numerous surgeries because of things going wrong because of delayed diagnosis and treatment of haemochromatosis, including bi lat hip replacements, and never once was it suggested that I go off oestrogen for that - thank goodness!

    Yeah, Menopause has always been swept under the rug, but women world wide are suffering.

      Is that how it is in the UK?  In Australia, that was 2 generations ago.  Maybe that is why we are so accepting and grateful for hrt here.

    Why is it that women can discuss things like menopause with each other but when it comes to our guys they just don't understand why we get moody, cry, have trouble sleeping and just want to be alone at times 

    Men have to understand that we are suffering with our hormones and at times we can't help crying, yelling, fussing, because we are tired because we are not getting our proper rest and we get sick due to our hormones 

    Men should let us be when we are in these moods instead of fighting with us

      If our men were doing this, we would not put up with it and send them off to their dr for treatment.
