Welcome to the forum and the HRT ride. It’s different for everyone and can be scary at first just because you don’t know what to expect, but many people see an improvement in some of their symptoms fairly soon with bigger improvements over the coming weeks/months. It can take some time to get your regime right so do talk to your doc if you feel worse on HRT or if you don’t see any improvement at all. Wishing you all the very best. This forum is a godsend and you will get so much support here!
