Age 68 - last period at 52 - first symptoms at 52

The random sudden hot flushes and profuse sweating were totally embarrassing. It was also the beginning of insomnia. I had a good doctor who addressed most areas. But through research of my own I began asking for bone density tests and explored bio-identical hormone replacement. This became cost prohibitive so I turned to regular HRT, which I found marvellous. I took them for many years.
