I’m utterly miserable because after reading all the terrifying reports of breast cancer risk, I’m scared to have a couple of glasses of wine. Are these exaggerated, these reports? Does my evening tipple have to now be a thing of the past? I am 54, slim, non smoker, perfect blood pressure, fit. SOMEONE TELL ME I CAN HAVE A DRINK! Panting for a glass LOL!

It's a good idea to stick within the government guidelines but alcohol in moderation is OK.

I find a glass really helps me wind down. I know some people think this is unhealthy but if it helps me to avoid anti anxiety meds Im sticking with it. I do think moderation is the key. Cheers!

You're in the right place,meno does all sorts to you,different women have different symptoms but all of us together we seem to have them all covered
yes,enjoy a drink but like Shropshirelass says,in moderation,when I hit meno I could no longer drink like I used to anyway,so it might be the same for you. Good luck with the HRT
