Hormone Replacement Therapy (HRT)
The first thing I've learned about HRT is that every woman will have a different way of weighing the pros and cons. The challenge is to get as comprehensive a picture of those positives and negatives as possible.The second thing I've learned is that HRT is big business and very marketing driven. That means that people making and selling HRT products may have a primary motivation to create a need so that they make money. This could come at your health and pocket book expense.
Another point that needs to be realized is that science changes as time goes on. What we know about medicine today is vastly different than 50 years ago and will be somewhat dated in another 50 years. So what is claimed as safe and revolutionary today may turn out to be a giant failed experiment in the future. Or visa versa.
