[quote=Anonymous]Any hormone therapy carries risk of side effects. Most women can handle hormonal birth control, for instance, but some of us can't tolerate the side effects. HRT is the same. You are changing your hormone levels. It might work out great and it might not. Some small (but real) percent of people may experience life threatening side effects. All of this is why you should make this decision while consulting with a doctor. I absolutely loathe the narrative around HRT where people feel comfortable telling women they either absolutely must take it or absolutely should not take it. Everyone is different. It depends. Talk to a doctor. You can also try it at a low does and see how it goes. It either helps or it doesn't. No one on this board can tell you if it's right for you.[/quote]
