[quote=Anonymous]I have been on HRT for about 2 years, and went on it about 2 years after menopause. It massively improved my sleep, and ability to think. I would suggest reading Estrogen Matters, and signing up for Peter Attia's podcasts (subscription but very worth it). Episode 275 is entirely devoted to your question, and analyzes the different types of HRT available. There is a lot of controversy around HRT that you'll need to evaluate but there are two pretty important consensus points: (1) HRT is generally only beneficial if you start within the 10 years after menopause, and (2) the blood viscosity issues are only associated with oral HRT. I use an estradiol 0.05 mg patch, and take progesterone 200 mg capsule at night.[/quote]
