I'm simply leaning towards not taking anything at all, but eat more tofu and flax seeds for the phytoestrogens. Every medication has a side effect.
Then again, I'm still making up my mind. Just early days into my menopause and suffering pretty bad from hot flushes, night sweats and weight gain. Stress doesn't help (can't avoid it, sadly as it's due to the living situation).
I've also got elevated cholesterol levels, but GPs here in the UK are useless to be honest. I've been told through a text that I must eat a healthy diet and exercise (I'm plant based, cooking from scratch and walk likely more than any of the GPs in the surgery) I've had gut issues for decades which is just shrugged off as IBS, as usual, it's the quick -reach diagnosis.
Personally, I've lost all the trust in doctors. They're good if you break your arm or have a severe infection (if you're lucky enough to get it diagnosed correctly), but that's about it.
So I don't trust HRT recommended by doctors as a result.
Do you know of a study examining those two forms of oral estrogen?
I’ve been on the BHRT oral estradiol since 2011 or so.
I can change to a daily transdermal but I want to see if there are studies comparing those two delivery systems with the same molecule.
