That's a difficult question for me to answer because I was hit by a car and was dealing with quite a bit of pain long before I even started HRT
Does the HRT exasperate that pain? I wouldn't really know - I do know that I have lost quite a bit of strength, but I'm not really sure how much of that to attribute to the injuries or HRT either
I'm just glad I'm not confined to a wheelchair and I only have to use a cane to help me stand up from time to time these days
