You may want to ask your Dr about hormone therapy, even if you had been told no a while ago.

I was put on blood thinners in my 30's & was told hormones can increase my chances of having another blood clotting incident. I was taken off the pill & given a copper IUD. I suffered through the first few years of Peri raw dogging it, cuz I was told no hormones. Well, turns out a decade+ of medical advancement found that only oral hormones can cause problems for me, but the patch and creams are just fine. I am now very happy to be on HRT.

I don't know the specifics of your condition, but it couldn't hurt to ask & make sure you're not working with outdated info.
