[quote=Anonymous]I am on a medication that can cause horrible infections and cancer. A lot of people have died from taking it. But this medication makes it so I can function, decreases my risk of other cancers, and decreases my risk of major medical complications that make me miserable and can also cause death. The cost benefit analysis with the medication I'm on is pretty simple: I'm obviously going to take it. It might be a bit more complicated to HRT; its not easy for laypeople to understand what these studies actually mean in terms of increased risk. We all know so many people who have made terrible decisions based on their reading of a study they didn't understand, and often entire professions do this. But life isn't risk-free and we have to take a holistic look at things. [/quote]
