[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]People! You need to trust your gynecologist, she knows what she’s doing (if not, find a better gynecologist)[/quote] How do you know that they know what they are doing? It’s not always clear. Most have zero knowledge of menopause for example (no training in med school). Most would say they treat it though. The treatment should often include hormones but usually consists of them saying, “menopause sucks. Sorry. Good luck. See you next year.” So let’s not belittle people doing research. Doctors are not perfect. Many fields continue to work with guidelines that are outdated (anesthesiologists saying not to eat 8-16 hours before anesthesia for example). [/quote] If your doctor isn’t continually reading research to keep up with current facts, you need to find a new gyno. [/quote]
