Hi.. think I'll go back to my g.p. and ask about hrt gel or patches. The thing is I am a little wary as years ago when I first started the menopause I was put on tablet form. Then I developed a cyst in one of my breasts so I was took off it. Is this really a risk..was it a precursor to possible breast cancer? Just had hrt pessaries and felt so much better,no headaches etc..Does anyone have any advice,comments to share?.
