Recent Studies Reveal Increase In Side Effects Of Estrogen Replacement Therapy!


Are you or someone that you know taking Premarin or Prempro to combat the effects of menopause?

If you are taking Prempro or Premarin then you are probably already aware of the long term side effects and dangers of "HRT". What is alarming is that the latest research shows that it is even more dangerous than previously thought.

What started all the controversy?

On July 9th 2002, The National Institute of Health announced that it had halted a major study, stating that the long-term use of estrogen and progestin significantly increases the chances of invasive breast cancer, blood clots, and heart attacks.

The NIH findings show that just 1 year-long use of estrogen and progestin increased an otherwise healthy woman's risk of a heart attack by 29 percent, blood clots doubled, breast cancer increased by 24 percent, and stroke by 42 percent.

Currently, six million American women take this potentially lethal hormone combination.

What happened after the NIH initial report?

On Oct 16th 2002.

The U.S. Preventative Services Task Force, in review of the above data, gave prescription hormone therapy a “failing grade,”saying that whatever benefits the treatment provides is outweighed by the risk.

The industry received what appears to be the final blow. Another huge study, funded by the British government was halted 10 years before planned.

On May 30 2003, more bad news

Prescription hormone replacement therapy with synthetic estrogen and un-natural Progestin is now associated with increased risk of stroke and dementia. This was anounced in three reports released in the May 28th issue of “The Journal of the American Medical Association.”

According to the WHI and WHIMS the relative risks of using Prescription Estrogen plus Progestin are:

Heart attacks 29% higher increase/ 7 per 10k
Breast cancer 26% higher increase / 8 per 10k
Strokes 41% higher increase / 8 per 10k
Dementia 105% increase / 23 per 10k, women 65 plus
Blood clots 111% higher increase / 18 per 10k
