Beware that many women may have no periods for a while and it can return months later. Blood test are even more confusing. That is why I never do them, since they cannot predict whether you are menopausal or not. Only time will tell. My mother told me that what she liked the most about menopause was that there was no more periods, no fear of pregnancy, and that the sex was better.
Many women fill their prescriptions like obedient puppies without asking questions.
You need to know that most doctors believe that women should be on HRT for their own good. It is then up to each woman to make her own choice. I am waiting to see the final results. This somewhat vindicates Dr. Susan Love. She has been saying not to give HRT to all women since most studies that had been done were with healthy women.
