Hi,I am Dr. Amitkumar Sharma (Internal Medicine Specialist). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
I am 59ys old have been on HRT for some years as I had a hysterctomy at 27yrs old, I have been fine and just last week my nipples became very sore, I had a steriod injection about a month ago for arthritis, and I take thyroxine, should I get myself check out?
I will suggest you to tell me exact name of drug you are taking for hormone replacement therapy. There are side effects associated with prolonged use of hormones. Get a consultation with a surgeon done and a mammogram if that is feasible.
Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Regards,
Dr. Muhammad Faisal Bacha, Internal Medicine Specialist
