[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Sure your hormones change in your mid-40s but I am really not clear why everyone wants to jump on the medicalization bandwagon. Just do what you know you should do - eat better, exercise more, lift weights.  Most likely you have several more years until you hit any particular symptoms to be treated (if ever). [/quote]

It's okay to just not participate in this conversation if you don't have anything helpful to add. I would LOVE to not jump on the "medicalization bandwagon" but when you're in your early 40's and "doing what you know you should do" but still experiencing symptoms like waking up nightly in a pool of sweat, random crippling anxiety with no explanation, joint pain, mood swings and crazy periods, it's pretty hard to tolerate. When you've ruled out most other things, probably worth trying the "medicalization" route. HRT has resolved just about all of it. It must be nice that you haven't experienced any of that and assume other people are just dumb sheep, we're all really happy for you. [/quote]
