NATURAL
vs. CONVENTIONAL
HORMONE
REPLACEMENT THERAPY
Conventional Hormone Replacement Therapy
(HRT) uses a synthetic hormone
called
Premarin (which is derived from female horse urine) which increases a
woman’s risk of
contracting Breast cancer
2.3% for each year of use.
What
this
means is that if you used HRT for 20 years your chance of getting breast cancer
would increase by 46%.
HRT does decrease a woman’s risk of
atherosclerosis,
osteoporosis, senility and Alzheimer’s disease.
However, most
Physicians are
completely ignorant of NATURAL HORMONEREPLACEMENT
(NHR).
Furthermore, most of the research and testing has been done using
forms of
hormones that can be patented by drug companies (who then exercise exclusive
rights and have a big tendency toward
exacerbating profit margins).
NHR
consists
of replacing the "actual" Human Female
Hormones using Natural Sources DHEA, Progesterone Cream, Estradiol, Estriol and
Testosterone. We believe NHR
is a safer alternative to conventional
HRT. To properly assess post-menopausal Hormone
Status of a woman we run a test called a
Female HORMONE PANEL.
It’s a
saliva test that measures actual hormone levels and can measure the effectiveness
of
NHR. Too often we find women are overdosing or deficient in one or more
particular
hormones, resulting in complications.
Finally, some women who live a
more Natural Life-Style do not need Estrogen Replacement
in any form, as they
focus on Herbals, Soy Products, Vegetarian Cuisine, Stress Management and
Exercise... Obviously, this
life-style should be adopted regardless of if you choose
Natural Hormone Replacement,
Conventional Hormone Replacer or No
Hormone Replacement!
