Hello @May_james and welcome to the online community,
Youve raised an interesting question about whether HRT would make any difference to the joint pain you are currently experiencing in your hands and toes. There’s a short article on the Versus Arthritis website regarding HRT, but it talks more about using it to treat osteoporosis and prevent fractures
There has been a recent discussion on the forum too you might like to have a read of the posts and perhaps ask some questions. Other members may also share their experiences.
Do let us know how you’re getting on,
Anna ( Mod)
