Title : Combined HRT: The strongest evidence for mature women castration
Abstract:
From menarche at about age 12 to menopause, which may occur arguably about age 51, women have lived for about 39 years, more than a 1/3 of their lives enjoying the benefits of ovarian cycling and the hormones which such delivers: Oestrogen, Progestrogen and Testosterone.
Starting suddenly about age 41-45, their bodies are forced to exist on dwindling levels of these hormones and it is at this time we crave HRT preparations to address our body's revolt against this deficiency.
It is with in the context, with the uterus present we aim to palliate this revolt with combined HRT, oestrogen, progestrogen but what do our bodies tell us: with the combined preperation (a) there are more cases of breast cancer, (b) more referral to the hospital with complaints of post menopausal bleeding and (c) with a thickened endometrium pointing to potential pathology.
Few will argue that this may be the strongest argument yet for the mature female castration before commencing combined HRT.
