[quote=Anonymous]I’m your age OP. I’ve been in peri for 10 years. My doc just put me on continuous birth control pills. She said to try this first. She prefers HRT for post menopausal women If this doesn’t help me then I can try HRT. Birth control replaces your hormones and keeps them level all the time. HRT adds a lower dose of estrogen to what you already have. Since I still get periods, albeit super irregular, my hormones go from spiked really high to really low. The BC pills basically make them ‘medium’ all the time and keeps me from having a period at all so I don’t deal with irregularities anymore. HRT would add to my natural spikes and could cause heavier bleeding. [/quote]
