Chris it depends at what stage you are in life. If you had no problems prior to perimenopause than your issues could solely be estrogen. Tazmepeg I believe is premenopausal and could have totally different issues that won't necessarily be solved with just BCPs or HRT.

I don't remember if you said if you had HL problems prior to peri or not. In my case my problems didn't start until after menopause.
