This is my first post, so hello everyone

I am 53 and I’ve been taking HRT for four years. It took at least two years to get the balance right. I take oestrogen, testosterone and I have a Marina coil because I was still getting regular periods.

Two days ago I was diagnosed with early breast cancer. I am now awaiting my meeting with the surgeon to discuss how they want to move forward and radiotherapy. I feel so panicky at the thought of having to stop HRT. They’ve advised that I start to reduce it. Thought of having to do this naturally fills me with fear and uncertainty. Has anybody else had to come with HRT and if so what remedies did they use? Also, I don’t even know about what stage I am in in my menopause x
