Thanks,I concur with what you say, I don't expect it to be a miracle cure , but it is difficult to know how long you should give it to see what improvement there is/should be. I suppose I just need to be well enough to work , as soon as possible, so I do not want to be waiting for months not doing anything when the answer might be to increase the dose. And I am assuming there must be an average rule of thumb , eg higher earlier , lower later , suits most. I know they recommend the lowest dose to see if it works then you can increase it if there is no effect, but there seems to be so much conflicting and inconsistent advice it is difficult to know what to do. If I had listened to my GP and not sort further advice I would have stopped taking HRT again and been back at square 1. I intend to give it 4 months at least if I can .
Here's hoping it all goes well for all of us finding it hard to cope ,
