[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I don’t trust anything RFK jr or trump says. This FDA is currently SUS so I’m seeing this as a red flag. If they promote it, I should not consider it. 
If it was legitimately safe, Melania should have made the announcement. Woman to women. 
I’ll wait until we have actual medical experts back in the FDA before I trust their advice. [/quote]

Wow - you would have given it more credence out of Melania’s mouth? That’s moronic.

HRT has enabled me to sleep through the night regularly for the first time in a year. Game changer.[/quote]

And has increased your risk of stroke and cancer. [/quote]

Well, my thyroid stopped working in my 20s and I need thyroid replacement hormone for the rest of my life to function because my body doesn’t make thyroid hormone anymore.  Does that raise my risk of stroke and cancer?  I don’t know, maybe.  But I’d rather die than live half dead.  I don’t see how it’s different with progesterone and estrogen.  [/quote]

You don’t see how thyroid hormones and estrogen/progesterone are different? Ok. [/quote]

Why are estrogen/progesterone sacrosanct? One hormone is okay but not the other?

I had intense throwing up level menstrual cramps as a teen. BC was the miracle solution. Yet, those cramps were natural. Should I have just suffered?[/quote]

Ffs. Nobody said any hormone is “sacrosanct.” The point is that your thyroid failing in your 20s is totally different from menopause in your 50s. To compare the two is nonsensical. [/quote]

Is it more nonsensical than posting cherry-picked facts about potential risks while deliberately ignoring the data that suggest HRT lowers all-cause mortality? [/quote]

All medical societies say that there are risks. [/quote]
