I have erratic cycles, night sweats, and hot flashes and I’m not interested at this point.


At 48 it’s worth having a conversation with a physician about this. HRT has preventative effects in heart disease and bone health.


No it doesn’t.

Come back in a year.

Don't do any hormones unless needed badly.

Don't declare menopause until you have gone a full year without a period. You could do a blood draw every day for a year in middle aged women and get a different result each time.

I am 48, haven't had a period in several months and all of my bloodwork just came back basically saying that I am in menopause. Do I do HRT or is it fine since it kind of snuck up on me? Will it get worse? I feel caught off guard!
