Menopause without HRT
Suffering with hot flushes?
Feeling as though you’re losing your marbles??
Having been through the menopause myself, and having seen so many of my friends go through it too, I know only too well the dilemma most women face.
Living without HRT is a nightmare and living with HRT seems to bring us another set of problems.
Actually, there is a third course available (see below) but, let’s look first at some recent findings about HRT.
Here’s the boring stuff: (skip down to the yellow section for the answers!)
Experts warn that there is a higher risk of getting ovarian cancer and of dying from ovarian cancer when using HRT.
Every 5 years there will be I extra case of ovarian cancer for every 2,500 women on HRT, and for every 3,300 women on HRT, there is estimated to be one additional death from ovarian cancer.
The study, conducted by Cancer Research UK, recruited 948,576 post-menopausal women. A third were undergoing HRT and a further fifth had received it in the past. Their progress was monitored for seven years.
During the follow up period, 2,273 women developed ovarian cancer and 1,591 died from the disease. When compared to women who did NOT use HRT, there were 1,300 extra cases of ovarian cancer and 1,000 extra deaths from cancer.
In 2003, the study also showed a link with breast cancer.
Researchers found the combined risk of breast, ovarian or endometrial cancer appeared to be 63% higher in HRT users.
Some studies have claimed a small benefit to heart disease sufferers, and a reduction of osteoporosis, but there are much safer ways to help these conditions available (See below).
Professor John Toy, Cancer Research UK’s medical director, said, ”Considering this alongside the increases in risk for breast and endometrial cancer, women should think carefully about whether to take HRT.”
Professor Valerie Beral, director of Cancer Research UK’s epidemiology unit at Oxford University, said, “This study, along with our previous research, clearly demonstrates the cancer risks of taking HRT.”
1,000,000 women studied in UK. 1,300 extra cases of ovarian cancer between 1991 and 2005. Of these, 1,000 died of the disease.
Scares over increased risk of heart attack, stroke, breast and womb cancer led one million women to ditch the “miracle” pill after 2002.
THE ANSWERS:
How I got through the menopause without HRT
I used a cocktail of easily available Herbalife nutritional products to give my body the best nutritional support possible.
The products I used were:
Herbalife Tang Kuei – This wonderful herb has been used in China for at least 3,000 years. Supplied in easy to use capsule form, it nourishes and supports the female hormonal system.
I used 2 capsules per day. Some people use up to 6 per day quite safely.
Herbalife XtraCal – This is the best source of calcium I have ever found. It is combined with a range of herbs and other nutrients which help absorption and also facilitate the many uses of calcium in the body in the skeletal, nervous and muscular systems. It made a big difference to my skin, nails and hair too! I used 3 capsules per day.
Herbalife General Nutrition Formulas 1, 2 + Fibre & Herbs – I also used these wonderful all round nutritional products to get my whole health in order. I cannot endorse them enough.
I originally used them to lose weight, but was amazed at the dramatic improvements to my whole health. My skin problems, sinus problems and PMT problems all cleared up* and I soon began to feel and look healthier.
