Ofcourse there is so much negative about hormone replacement therapy…I am considering a “natural” HRT. Can you gals out there give me your thoughts on this?

My family have a history of heart attacks and strokes. I have had a full Hysterectomy and my doctor has put me on HRT.
I dont want to further my risk of a heart attack or a stroke and wonder if anyone knows of a natural remedy i can take instead of HRT?

I had uterine cancer when I was 15, my oncologist/gyn said he felt that it was a result of my mother having taken DES, when she was pregnant with me. My mother only remembers taking a pink vitamin, during her pregnancy w/ me. I had read that they gave women “vitamins” but, it was really DES. Which caused cancers in the womens’ offspring at puberty or adulthood. SupposedIy DES, was drug to prevent miscarriages.I was born in 1960.

I am 3 years post-hysterectomy and have been on Estrace since that time. I suspect it is causing me to gain weight, lose muscle tone and look older! I have noticed a big decline since the surgery, and lately have heart fluttering and palpitations occasionally. Yesterday I did not take the Estrace and had no palpitations all day. I want to stop taking it. Is it safe to do that?

I thought after ten years that all those symptoms would have been finished. Only have the flashes no other symptons. Seems as though the HRT only hid the symptoms not eleviated them. How long before this lasts. I am 56 years old.

I really want to go natural as far as hormones are concenred. Also, were you in the hospital long? My doc says she does them as outpatient surgeries but that seems so quick. Any input would be much appreciated.
I am having the ovares taken because my mother had ovarian cancer and it is very heriditary. My mother is now on her third bout with cancer and there will be no more surgeries for her.

I’m 32 years old and had a (full) hysterectomy in 2001. The Doctors seem to want to keep me on Premarian forever, but everything I read says thats a bad idea. HELP!

I had a rough hysterectomy last june with several severe complications including having to heal from the inside-out with seeweed packing from a home nurse for 6 weeks, plus my legs feel like lead and i have zero energy, maybe it’s because im so young but i need suggestions or help.

I had a full hysterectomy 2 1/2 weeks ago and have just been given Estradiol 2 mg to take every day for the next 15 years as i am only 35.
Does anyone know how long it takes for this HRT to start working?
I would love to hear from anyone who is or who has taken Estradiol before on how it made them feel.
what is the difference between conjugated and esterified???
