[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Yes, it’s systemic. Your bones have estrogen receptors. Your brain has estrogen receptors. Your cardiovascular system has estrogen receptors. Your skin has estrogen receptors. Your GI tract has estrogen receptors. Parts of your body that regulate metabolism have estrogen receptors. Your joints have estrogen receptors. Your nervous system has estrogen receptors. These receptors need to bind to estrogen for these systems to function optimally. An abrupt drop-off in estrogen — as happens during peri and menopause — prevents these systems from functioning well. Any doctor or internet rando who is talking only about the risks of HRT, without also considering the risks of NOT taking HRT, hasn’t done their homework. [/quote] Um just because there are estrogen receptors multiple places in your body does not mean that we all have to take HRT. I mean we have canniboid and opioid receptors too. [/quote]
