HRT (Estrogen and Progesterone Hormone Replacement Therapy) After cancer for menopause?
Hi ladies, As the title states, is
there any one of you who are menopausal (either due to chemo or ageing)
doing HRT/MRT to manage your menopausal symptoms? I am researching into
HRT. I ...
@sek17 I am so sorry for all that you have gone through. It is really difficult. You shared that you had mastectomy done on the affected breast and it had a recurrence? What explanation did the doctor give you? Not clear margins done?
With HRT unfortunately I decided to stop it in the end, after giving it two tries over a few months and resetting my body twice. It just does not work for me in the end because I was all jittery and a wreck being on it. Even though I was already on the lowest dose ever.
I personally am a strong believer that hormones do not cause cancer but may cause faster tumour growth due to the receptor matter. But you have to do your own research. I had hormone negative breast cancer.
Also, I believe exercises such as weight training, resistance training will help. There is some who talk about using vibration machine (something I have not yet researched)
I am just so busy these two years with my kids to have time to properly take care of myself! Haha!
I do make sure I am faithful with my Vitamin D, K and I do take soy powder with my morning almond milk. And I try to walk more.
Most importantly, take care of our heart/spirit. I am a strong believer that my state of heart made me sick with cancer few years ago.
All the best xo
