[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I think nature is always better, so if your body goes through menopause, without many problems, HRT might not be needed. For so long women did not take any hormones and they went through menopause.[/quote]

Tin foil hat time, I think HRT is widely used so men can control women. We are expected to be pleasant and look youthful, so HRT. I know it has genuinely helped a lot of women, and some need it medically, but my hot take is for many on HRT is it used to control us, menopause is a natural process[/quote]

At my worst, I was sleeping in 30 minute chunks bc of hot flashes all night long.  This went on for months.  I was miserable, could barely focus.  Not sure why I'd want to suffer through that if I didn't have to.  Yeah, I guess my husband benefits from me being more pleasant from a good night's sleep, but I'd argue that I personally benefit even more - I deserve to have a life that is enjoyable and not merely tolerated one 30 minute chunk of sleep to another.
