I am so glad to be done with that! I do take hormone therapy 3 times/week.
It's a very low dose too.

Hang in there. It will stop, and then you can never worry about keeping all that equipment in your bag.

Judy I have fibroid cysts too. My gyno said they will shrink as I lose my period..

I remember your post about it Gina. They do go away. In fact, mine are probably completely gone by now. I went to my gyno and she didn't even mention them, so I guess they are not there!
