Inflammatory Biomarkers, HRT, and Incident CHD
I still continue to beat my head against the wall trying to figure out why any woman would use this stuff!! There have been no shortage of studies identifying adverse risk with HRT use (many of which HRT has been touted as benefiting for decades…). What’s even more surprising is how adamantly women talking HRT defend their use. Hot flashes and mood swings are the two most common reasons I hear. These can usually be managed very effectively with natural methods which include progesterone and some form of phytoestrogen.
