Take the HRT. I take a very low dose combipatch, which I started cutting in half. Just enough to keep me from being homicidal, suicidal and anorgasmic. That big prempro study from 5 years ago had many flaws and exceptions. Do your health maintenance (mammo, etc), pay attention to your body, get a pelvic exam every 1-2 years, and let yourself have a little estrogen. Live a little, will ya!! You, your vagina, and your significant other will thank you. Amen. <br />A. Relax. Take the HRT. I take a very low dose combipatch, which I started cutting in half.
