Hormone replacement therapy? - hrt ovarian cancer
I know that the estrogen in HRT reduces hot flushes, prevent bone loss and may even improve memory, but it increases the risk of blood clots and ovarian and breast cancer. This can also be used to meet the needs of hormone replacement therapy, without women, their risk?

Hrt Ovarian Cancer Hormone Replacement Therapy?
3 comments:
To avoid hot flashes, at least I have a estrogen patch. It offers a small amount of estrogen, much less than the standard HRT pill. If you still have a uterus, you must prevent medroxyprogesterone May instead (in small quantities) and tumors of the uterus.
The patch is not a low dose of hormones is only suitable for women who forget to take their pills every day. There are several options for the low-dose HRT to prevent good for vasomotor symptoms, vaginal atrophy and prevention of osteoporosis. You have to prove much information as possible. The risk of ovarian cancer has not been studied, the risk of breast cancer is so low that it was not statistically significant. The risk of blood clots was statistically significant, was minimal. Each woman should discuss the risks and benefits with your doctor to determine whether the hormones are entitled to it.
