Hormone replacement therapy (HRT) is mainly based on the administration of natural estrogens in combination with progesterone. Currently, there are many contraindications in relation to the risk of cancer, especially in families where their presence appears in several generations.
It is popular to take estrogen supplements, to prevent or postpone menopausal symptoms. But keep in mind that there is an increased risk of cancer when this is done.
Complications of HRT:
* Increased blood clotting,
* Cancer,
* Cardiovascular problems,
* Liver failure,
* Obesity
* Kidney,
* Varicose veins.
If estrogen (hormone replacement) therapy is begun, take vitamin E several hours earlier or later, not at the same time.
In addition, generous amounts of vitamins B6, C, folic acid, pantothenic acid, PABA, and B12 will make the estrogen therapy more effective. All of it you can find in Menopausal Formula.
Oral estrogens should not be accompanied by progesterone because they increase the cancer induction risk.
Keep in mind that synthetic, not natural, estrogens are given in hormone replacement therapy. These tend to accumulate in the body, and also can cause metabolic changes in the liver. This can lead to high blood pressure, fluid retention, and blood clots. But natural estrogens are available; one is equine estrogen, and is extracted from the urine of pregnant mares. But it is very powerful, and may also cause changes in the liver. Do not use it if you are obese, smoke, or have high blood pressure, high cholesterol, or varicose veins.
