Thank you for sharing your question with the EmpowHER community.
HRT (Hormone Replacement Therapy) is a treatment for menopause related symptoms given to women who's estrogen and progesterone levels have dropped significantly.
Forgetfulness or "brain fog" are common complaints for women during menopause and there is even research suggesting that cognitive decline and memory problems associated with menopause may be linked to fluctuating levels of hormones in the brain.
The above supports what you have been experiencing. I'm not sure if your situation is rare, but I'm sure glad to hear that those undesirable symptoms have resolved and you are feeling much better.
