What exactly is HRT? I saw a gyn last fall about it & she was adamantly opposed to what I believe was that..I believe she was more against the chain places. Need to call my doc this week & ask again about a low dose hormone treatment for the irritability & hot flashes.

I am right there with ya mwd...menopause sucks! Aand i DO workout at least 5 times a week for 45 minutes tho I admit the intensity is not what it used to be; think the added weight & discouragement of nothing seeming to work has affected my zeal. I just joined a friendly yet pretty intense fitness competition at work &…
