Can you tell us what type of HRT you are using, as we may be able to find some literature that describes "What you can expect" regarding symptom relief. Here is some information from the EmpowHER Menopause condition page on HRT:
"Hormone Replacement Therapy (HRT)
A number of different types of hormones are available. They include:
* Natural, synthetic, and plant-derived estrogens
* Progesterone
* Combinations of estrogen and progesterone
* Addition of small amounts of male hormones
HRT is available as tablets, gels, skin patches, vaginal rings, vaginal tablets, injections, and pellets inserted into the skin."
