Hi ya
I am on HRT as had a total hysterectomy 8 years ago and immediately was put on Premarin 1.25mg.
For me its the best thing, a few times i have forgotten to take the tablet and it has got me later in the day at work, hot sweats, flushes etc which is a bit embarrassing when you are at work and all you want to do is strip off....lol
Anyway, i have been told i have to be on it for at least until my late 60s. I am 38 now so i have to be careful with reference to Breast Cancer as I had a scare last year and had to have a mammogram etc and have to go back again in September for the same again just to make sure.
Each person is individual when they take HRT as it effects you in different ways.
There are a lot of scare stories but i feel that they are no more than scaremongering and you are the only person who can decide whether you go on HRT or continue to take it. Me, myself i know the risks and am happy to continue to take mine as it makes me feel calmer and happier in myself.
Hope the above helps and good luck. Love lynnk xx
