New Study On ThromboEmbolism Risks In HRT

This is certainly an issue for me due to severe coronary artery disease.  I was aware that progesterone was the biggest issue for clotting and that any form of E could cause additional risks.  Interesting how larger does seem to be a major problem.  Dr. McGinn has kept my dosage low.  That bothered me at first but the results have been good even though my dosage is at the lower suggested amount suggested in this article.  

I cringe when i see folks being prescribed large doses as part of HRT but then again i'm not their doctor.

 

Hugs,

Interesting article, relivent in my case as I have asked my provider about going on trans-dermal estrogen. She has sent a consult to the group of Dr. in MN. She has started upping my spiro too.
