[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Most of the doctors are relying on an old poorly designed study from over 20 years ago. The more recent studies show that IF YOU START HRT BEFORE you are fully through menopause it has significant benefits in protecting your heart and brain. If you wait until you are in your 60s, it’s too late because those receptors have turned off and so your body isn’t able to make appropriate use of the hormones and the effect is negative.[/quote] This contradicts 14:24. From my mother's abysmal experience with HRT, I'm not touching it. Also, it doesn't make sense to me for "normal" menopause. And the constantly changing medical recommendations do not inspire me to change my mind.[/quote] Your mother?? Birth control was usually in higher doses back then. Not like what they use now. Are you comparing an apple to an orange? [/quote]
