AIBU to think there's no point in delaying the inevitable?

No! Just develop medications to help with the downsides, aching joints, dryness etc

Why???

Periods for another 20 years then the menopause as your approaching 70 ? No thank you.

If you delay it by 20 years then you are going to have it when you’re 80 (let’s say) anyway. And periods up until then. What a dreadful idea.

I remain very much behind the times when it comes to interfering with nature. I don't agree with it.

I certainly did not want to delay the menopause. Freedom and no more crampy pains each month

God why would you? Was so thrilled not to have periods anymore which over the years had been really painful and very heavy. Menopause gave me a new lease of life!

This procedure delays menopause by up to 20 years. Why? What's the point? There's a freedom that comes with the menopause that I wouldn't want to put off.

What do you think?
