[quote=Anonymous]OP, I'm 57 and started on the HRT patch with oral progesterone about 6 months ago. It was definitely something I had to bring up with my gyn; she did not mention it to me proactively. My menopause symptoms were never very severe, so I didn't want a heavy treatment. However, I was having enough discomfort - mood swings, brain fog, achy joints, insomnia - that I wanted to see if there was something available. I've been very happy with the patch. It's hard to describe exactly how it has helped, but all I can say is that I feel more like my old self. I don't plan to stay on this very long - maybe a year or 18 months at the most. My gyn agrees that it is a good and safe way to move through the first couple of years of menopause, until your hormones restabilize.[/quote]
