I recently retired as a licensed mental health therapist due to GSM. I didn't want to retire, my clients needed me, but I was in so much pain and honestly could not find appropriate medical attention. I went doctor shopping, and found lots of nitwits who told me to avoid coffee. I researched myself with my husband's help and got into pelvic floor therapy and began vaginal estrogen therapy (my PCP reluctantly prescribed after I was sobbing). I am so frustrated, although I am recovering slowly. I wish I could go back to work again. I am 67 and was hoping to work till 80. Mental health quite frankly can not afford to lose any more good clinicians to menopause symptoms! Geeez!!

Sorry GSM was so severe for you. You should have been given vaginal estrogen immediately. Because of your posting I asked my alternative medicine doc for intravaginal estrogen at the first mild symptoms of genital irritation. I told him of some of the on line postings of women having severe pain and that I thought I'd get a better response if we started early. I am hoping that with more time your symptoms will resolve. Remember it takes longer to reverse well established symptoms than to prevent them ( keep them from ever starting).

Hard to just go get hrt in a country that seems dead against it (I live in Greece).. and without a trusted medical professional to discuss it with! From my own research, I believe hrt needs to be personally tailored (I have a history of blood clots & breast calcification), so yes, we're responsible for our own health to a point.. but I feel completely lost as I don't have a medical pro to talk this over with! ..And the months/years are ticking by & I'm already worried it's getting too late for me! What to do?? 😢

Dr Bluming’s book “Estrogen Matters” which I read 5 years ago in 2018, changed my life. I immediately contacted my ob/gyne and argued that I wanted HRT. Wasn’t easy to convince her, but I’m now with a menopause specialist. Thank you Dr Bluming (and Dr Tavris who is his co-author).

My doctor not only refused, he told me no place in the country would give it to me. He went on to say that he likes me but he has 4 children to feed and send to college and he wouldn’t risk losing his license. He then offered me a new med for hot flashes that can’t be used with a bad liver. I have NASH/ liver fibrosis. He talked down to me so badly that I left in tears. I wasn’t even that upset with the cancer diagnosis. I don’t know how to get the help I need or how to be “allowed” to chose my risks. I’m at an utter loss..

She told me don't take it more than 5 years. I was planning to take the hrt for the rest of my life. Is there a time limit to take the hrt? Would it be harmful to take on hrt for many year?

I absolutely know that no doctors when I was going through peri-menopause/ menopause realized that my heart palpitations were caused by menopause, so I had no idea what was causing them! Scared me to death! Just like a panic attack, but without any emotions! I made them give me an exercise stress test, which made the doctor mad. I didn't want or really need HRT, but I just wanted to know what was happening with my heart! (It's still perfectly normal years later, at 72.) And btw, menopausal symptoms are largely TEMPORARY, thank goodness.

I am on a 0.05 mg ESTRADIOL PATCH (the most currently recommended and safer form of estrogen, and safer delivery method instead of oral estrogen meds ), 100 mg oral MICRONIZED progesterone (again, currently the most recommended and safer form)and recently added a cream form of Testosterone applied as 1 pump daily (this is for increased energy, easier building of lean muscle mass, and of course helps w/libido as well. I thought I would never ever want to do hormone therapy. Of course that was until I actually went into menopause. And I quickly realized there was absolutely no way in hell I was going to spend the last half of my life feeling like THAT! I feel so so much better(clearer headed, more energetic, less easily agitated, and most importantly stronger. I’ve researched heavily. I’ve heard the arguments on both sides. And I still landed on feeling quite comfortable with my choice. I won’t close my mind to learning in case there is more data later. After all that is science, we learn, we do better. my doctor luckily is wonderful and is taking a low and slow approach with this.

I’m feeling like this estrogen conversation is much like the initial stages of the mRNA vaccines. I was on bio identical hormones when I was 48 years old, had a full hysterectomy at 50 due to a growth in my uterus. I continued with HRT until I was diagnosed with breast cancer last year at the age of 67. I was immediately told my Stage 2 breast cancer was estrogen driven and they told me to stop all my hormone therapy. After surgery, radiation, now I’m grappling with AI drugs. Anastrozole gave me bad side effects and my oncologist gave me a break and will start Letrozole next week. These drugs are creating angst knowing more side effects will come my way. Some people might refer you to me as old but I’m still vibrant and want to live my best life. I’m more confused than ever as I felt so good on estrogen and progesterone. By the way, I’m ER+, PR+ and HER-

I’ve gone through almost a decade of menopause symptoms without knowing that’s what was going on.

First, doctors are now prescribing estrogen cream per my oncologist. Second, the medical profession has to be open to change as new information is discovered. It’s my life and if quality is more important to me than length of life I should have a say. I would happily sign a waiver

Thank you again so much for this overview. It means so much to so many people. I’ve been trying to find Dr Blumimg’s meta analysis white paper referenced in the session, however, I have not been able to do so. Is there any way you can send me a copy of this peer reviewed journal/document? I have discussed it with my OB/Gyn would like to share with my oncologist. At least to get people thinking a little bit more broadly. Thank you again for all that you do!

How about my gyn told me. Everything looks normal. So my burning I have on one side of labia, is just part of menopause. Also told not too many options for this issue. Feeling defeated

You might have a pelvic floor physical therapist take a look at you. I don't know your back story, but depending on the cause, they could help you with that.
