Not urgent.: It isn't medically urgent. But if you are having problematic symptoms then it may be prudent.

Probably not: No medical reason to do this, and still there are doctors who have not studied the whi data and would suggest that you start estrogen and Progesterone therapy, which we would almost never do.
