Do
I start HRT? Don't I? Is it safe? First of all, this type of
decision should be made after speaking with your doctor.
Menopause…you
should always remember that it's perimenopause (not menopause)
that causes those uncomfortable symptoms such as "hot flashes,"
severe menstrual cycles, night sweats, etc. Menopause is what
happens when estrogen and progesterone reach their lowest levels
of production, symptoms like "hot flashes" disappear and your
menstrual cycle stops, forever.
Estrogen
is important. Lack of estrogen not only increases your risk
of osteoporosis and colon cancer, but also causes vaginal drying,
which can negatively impact your sexual health.
Is
HRT safe? Recent studies on HRT (hormone replacement therapy)
only showed the dangers of taking high-dose prescription hormones
in combination over a very long time. It did speak about lower-dose
hormone therapy or natural hormone therapy.
