Hormone Replacement Therapy: Do the Adversities Outweigh the Potential Benefits?
A 10 page discussion of the contradictory evidence which exists regarding the benefits verses the adverse potentials of hormone replacement therapy (HRT)in menopausal women. While HRT is still touted by many professionals as advantageous in certain circumstances, these contentions are now being refuted in the case of new evidence which suggests that not only is it not effective in preventing bone fractures and reducing the risks of heart disease, there may be a small increase in the frequency of heart attacks, strokes, blood clots, and fatal strokes. There is also an adverse correlation between HRT and urinary incontinence, gallbladder disease, breast tenderness, and uterine bleeding, among other effects. Bibliography lists 14 sources.
