Women who take hormone replacement therapy to treat menopause symptoms do not have a higher than usual risk of heart attack, especially if they use a cream or skin patch or take "cyclic" hormone combinations, Danish researchers reported on Tuesday.
Their study, published in the European Heart Journal, suggests it is not hormone replacement therapy that raises the risk of heart attacks in women, but the way it is taken.
Estrogen only is an answer to not taking PROGESTINS! Not progesterone. This is a drug company ploy. And Zoe, hormone replacement has never been shown to have anything to do with hormone-receptive tumors.
