I’ve been reading about estrogen as well and it does say it may help with joint pain and bone health even in post menopausal women, which I am at 75, but desperate for some kind of relief from the RA symptoms

Hi Carmen,

I've read articles that say it does, but it remains in the research phase and is not fully understood.
