I have had to stop taking hrt hopefully only temporarily. I have only been on it 6 months and stopped taking it on Friday. Since I stopped taking it my joints have become very painful and nothing is helping, Could the Hrt have been helping? Has anyone else had anything similar?

I wish the doctor would have kept me on HRT. He took me off when I was 60. I had a total hysterectomy when I was 42 so had been on it a long time. I still after 4 years have hot flushes and aches and pains. I also have Osteopenia. I hoped the doctor would have let me continue on a low dose to help with the bones. Have you ever been pressured to come off it, sounds like your doctor is supportive

I had a hip replacement 16 months ago due to osteoarthritis. I can honestly say it was the best decision I have ever made. Yes I was not looking forward to everything post op, but I am now 100% mobile and after not being able to walk any distances I now enjoy walking again and I've managed to lose 2.5 stones. Totally pain free and I've had lots of comments about how much happier I look - my face was obviously showing my pain. If you have any questions please ask!
