Ask yourself why you want to start HRT after you have already gone through menopause. The risks are greater than the rewards.You have a greater chance of getting cancer-cervical, uterine, and breast. HRT is meant to be a short-term therapy. Studies have proven that HRT does help to stem bone loss but does not protect women from heart disease.
To prevent osteoporosis, walk daily, take calcium and vitamin D supplements, eat a diet rich in calcium and leafy green vegetable, work out with light weights, and engage in some form of aerobic activity several times per week.

My doctor recommends phyto soya capsules not HRT. It's a natural supplement taken twice a day. Available from your farmacy. I take it and it is well recommended ( I am 60). I took HRT for 12 years and was warned off HRT because of the range of natural supplements availbale now.
