4 Reasons Women are Wrongly Denied Access to Hormone Replacement Therapy

#1. YOU HAVE A FAMILY HISTORY OF BREAST CANCER 

We want to know your family history so that we can provide advanced screenings and take preventative measures, but it does not mean you can’t use hormone replacement therapy.

#2. YOU HAVE MIGRAINES WITH AURA

You can absolutely use hormone replacement therapy. Transdermal estrogen is often recommended in this case.

#3. YOU CARRY FACTOR 5 LIDEN MUTATION OR HAVE A HIGHER RISK OF BLOOD CLOTS

You are still a candidate for HRT. This is another case where transdermal estrogen is preferred.

#4. YOU HAVE A FAMILY HISTORY OF STROKE OR HEART ATTACK 

Family history is important here because we want to give you preventative strategies and screenings, but it does not exclude you from using HRT.

Perimenopausal and menopausal symptoms don’t have to be “just part of getting older“. Women deserve better care. Begin your Hormone Replacement Therapy journey with Emerald Direct Health today.
