Ok, ok, ok... a little late with the update from my endocrinologist, but late is better than never!
So I had a really good discussion with him. Spent 45 minutes talking and figuring out what was the best thing to do for me and my situation. Because I am still so young, we decided on a cyclic hormone replacement therapy. It seems to be the best thing for me. Dont have the same risks I would have if I was taking it all the time. Seems this way is healthier for the body when it should still be functioning properly and ovaries are intact. So for 25 days I take an estrogen pill, then on days 16-25 we add progesterone, stop day 26 and start again on day one. I am just going to follow the calendar days as that will be ok according to the doc and easier to remember when to take what!
So thats all for now, see my regular oncologist on Friday so will check in next week with that appointment!
