I have remained healthy, strong and active well into my 60's due to my BHRT. My marriage has survived my menopausal years completely due to the fact that I began this regimen of therapy. My mood swings and irritability were horrible and I was unable to make rational decisions. I am certain that my BHRT is the reason I have remained healthy and completely medication free at 66 years old. This is a life saving part of my life and I would be devastated without it.
