I’m looking into starting HRT, but I tend to get unconscious when getting vaccines. Are there ways to take hormones in another way (preferable pills)?

  • This is correct - clot risk is quite low until you reach 40 or so, so it’s basically down to preference until then. Patches definitely have that lower risk, but lots of people don’t like them or feel anxious checking they’re still on, so pills can be a good option for them.

    Important to remember pathways and medications are different all over the world, so what’s available might vary depending on where you live.
