its all down to personal choice, only you can decide on that..
all HRT has risks.. you need to out weigh the risks againts the positives..
I wont take it.. had a natural menopause.. i am age 50..
what you have to think about is.. when taking HRT you are putting back hormonea that naturally want to reduce.. thats natures way..
HRT puts back these hormones so peri symptoms subside, confusing the natural process .. and HRT doesnt suit everyone either .. some it does..
however... when HRT is stopped, you will have go deal with peri and menopause again, as the body needs to adjust again.. some women take HRT until they are 60 depending on country and Docs etc..
then they start the peri and menopause symptoms again in later life ... the body has to again accept these hormones are being weaned down and stopped in later life..
HRT cant be taken for ever..
.. Doctors dont tell you this..
so its down to personal choice..
