"When about four years ago I started menopause, my doctor suggested that I take estrogen, says 55-year-old librarian Marie Califano. But I did not want to. I almost did not have hot flashes and other unpleasant symptoms. I believe that menopause is a normal period, through which my body. And it seems to me unnatural to replace estrogen that my body does not want to produce more. Perhaps I would have reasoned differently if I had the symptoms and hardly. "
Rosin Dwyer had a good reason to give up on estrogen. "I took it for two years after I had surgery as a result of 28 years of the onset of menopause, now says 38-year-old stylist, but later I decided to stay." (Menopause occurs after the removal of the ovaries and the uterus as a result of surgery.)
"I'm more worried about the possible long-term effects of estrogen replacement therapy than what I have hot flashes started again. All of the studies, which I knew were performed on women after the age of 50-60 years. It seemed that no one knows what can happen to a woman who started taking estrogen after twenty years and would continue to do this for 30 or 40 years, she says. Also, I read that estrogen increases the risk of breast cancer and endometrial cancer. If my doctor could show me one paper in which black and white would have been written, that the benefits of estrogen outweigh the risks, I might have reacted to it differently. "
Clarice Harrell, on the contrary, believes that estrogen replacement therapy gave her a second life. Her tortured strongest mood swings and hot flashes, which brought her to the point of exhaustion, made irritable, ready to "beat his head against the wall." "Now this is the easiest time in my life, when would be the most severe, says Clarice, 46-year-old flight attendant. I feel feminine, I am, as ever, sexy, I ceased to be a hypochondriac, and, most importantly, I have no more such terrible mood swings. Even if I knew now that estrogen is bad, I would still continue to take it. "
Reasons for delight
Estrogen replacement therapy usually consists of regular intake of estrogen under the scheme to replace the natural estrogen, which in menopause the body produces less and less. Sometimes the scheme include another hormone progestin (a synthesized form of progesterone). When using a combination of hormone treatment is called hormone replacement therapy. Hormones are usually produced in the form of pills, although sometimes they are administered in the form of pastes, skin patch, vaginal suppositories and injections. Millions of American women in menopause and after it took advantage of estrogen replacement therapy, and many doctors believe that most of them would benefit from treatment. In America, patches available with different content of estrogen. Your doctor will help you choose the one that suits you.
Today it is difficult to find a doctor who has not admired the opportunities offered by estrogen replacement therapy. "In the world there is a doctor who, having studied the literature on estrogen replacement therapy, would not recommend it to every woman who has a testimony to its application, exclaims Deborah T. Gold, Ph.D., engaged in research work in the Center for the Study of Aging and Human Development at Duke University medical center in Durham, North Carolina. A huge number of women. "
It is no secret, for example, that the estrogen replacement therapy relieves severe symptoms during menopause. When the estrogen levels begin to fall, about 25 percent of women suffer from hot flashes, insomnia, mood swings, they observed vaginal atrophy. For some, as it did with Clarice, the symptoms are very pronounced. Estrogen replacement therapy can remove these symptoms by 95 percent. It is particularly useful for those who have menopause is the result of a hysterectomy. Symptoms associated with a decrease in estrogen after surgery may be particularly pronounced.
Doctors are also well known that estrogen replacement therapy after menopause is considered the best remedy for osteoporosis, a disease common to older women. Bone density decreases rapidly after menopause. As a result, frequent bone fractures. However, if treatment is commenced immediately estrogen after menopause, bone loss is minimized during the entire time that the woman receives this hormone.
"I see the difference between estrogen reception and rejection of it, when I look at my mother and her sister, says Dr. Gold, an associate professor of psychiatry and sociology in one of the health centers. My aunt after surgery, menopause, but she refused to treat estrogen, because she was afraid of cancer. My mother after natural menopause has decided to take estrogen. Now my aunt's back was the monstrous hunchback, she had fractures of the spine, hip, wrist. My mother, on the contrary, a great posture and no fractures. Here you have two women with similar genetic material, and that estrogen caused such a difference in their health.
Even if you do not talk about the impact that estrogen has on the symptoms of menopause and bone health, adds Dr Gold, there is sufficient evidence that it is still to be taken. "
