HRT

Hi

I'm a bit of a surgery veteran, having had 2 laprascopys a ovarian cyst removal and an hysterectomy. Today, after a long trial on hormone treatment (Zoladex and progesterone) I am now on the waiting list for a laparotic bilateral oophorectomy. I was wondering if anyone has had success with HRT and how it worked out? I have had Tibolone whilst on my recent treatment but I didn't get on with it.

Thanks in advance

Hi

It was actually part of the reason...go figure, but I was also bleeding 24/28 days and have a complex gynaecological history.

I'm 38 but I have grown up children so I went with it when the doc took it all away. I have since changed hospitals and specialist.

When I was on Zoladex treatment it was like someone turning the 'music off' pure blissful silence from the pain. Just a shame that I was allergic to the implants.

Just seen this and am interested to hear an update. I have recently had ovaries removed and am struggling with the HRT. I tried patches and I basically cried at least3x a day so am on tablets. Nauseous, headachey and irritatable. However, I now have raised liver enzymes which may be due to hrt. I am very sensitive to any Meds so who knows what's next. My word of caution is to make sure you can tolerate hrt or have a back up plan before the event! Hope to hear what happened. Take care.
