Why no HRT?
H(ormone)R(placement)T(therapy). We often forget the 'word' replacement.
MayB keep a mood/food/symptom diary. Browse the forum to find out what is available should symptoms become unbearable. HRT can be taken for Life or can be used to ease symptoms at the time.
Do read the 'bladder issues' and 'vaginal atrophy' threads. VA really does need treatment of local oestrogen: 4 me it was like razor blades

up there: my GP prescribed 'ovestin', others take 'vagifem'. The idea is to plump up the vaginal area so that it is less sore, itchy, read and uncomfortable. VA mimics repeated urine infection-type symptoms really really well. Not to be 'put up with' or ignored ;-)
