[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Just out of curiosity, for all the posters who insist on HRT to prevent osteoporosis, do you get regular blood work to check vitamin d? I’m not for or against HRT, but it does shock me that gyns don’t order bloodwork to check vitamin d, b12, magnesium, as well as TSH before prescribing anything. A lot of symptoms can actually be caused by a vitamin d deficiency, which is common. I think people assume that if they eat a varied diet and eat healthy, they aren’t deficient in anything, but some people do not absorb certain nutrients well — even if they eat all of the right things. [/quote] Mine just did. Not for HRT, though. I’m not ready for that but for low-dose BCP. All within normal ranges. [/quote] Low dose BCP is still a higher dose of estrogen than HRT provides.[/quote] Yes. Regardless, they don't give you HRT if your cycles are regular. Or, at least my doctor's office doesn't.[/quote]
