Ladies and the menopauseHi there I am 69 years old, had a hysterectomy aged 33 began an early menopause at 36 (due to the surgery). I suffered a DVT at the age of 29 and was advised to stop taking the contraceptive pill. I had a second DVT in my 40's (reason unknown) At the age of 40 my doctor prescribed HRT and there began the best years of my life. After major surgery I suffered P.E (pulmonary embolism) and was advised to stop the HRT. The years since have been overruled by the menopause. My doctor will NOT prescribe HRT again, even though the medics have rewritten the risks involved. Just wondering how many more years I have to suffer this unbearable way of life. Have a good day
