I'm afraid to take HRTs due to the risks, but I'm still feeling anxious & tired and other symptoms of menopause. I don't understand why replacing hormores are risky? If they are already in our body, why are there risks involved? If I take them, will the symptoms return when I go off them? Are there any natural ways to help? I don't take supplements of any medications. I wanted to go through the process naturally. But I'm so tired of feeling like crap I may have to try them. I have changed my diet to healthy, but am not getting exercise. Thanks for any help.
