A Groundbreaking Defense of Hormone Replacement Therapy

For many years, hormone replacement therapy (HRT) was the gold standard for alleviating menopausal symptoms such as hot flashes, mood swings, and cognitive decline. It also promised to reduce the risk of serious conditions like heart disease, Alzheimer’s, and osteoporosis. However, a pivotal study by the Women’s Health Initiative (WHI) dramatically shifted public perception by suggesting a link between HRT and an increased risk of breast cancer. This revelation led to widespread fear and the abandonment of HRT by many.

Exposing the Flaws in the WHI Study

In „Estrogen Matters,” Dr. Avrum Bluming, a seasoned medical oncologist, and Dr. Carol Tavris, a distinguished social psychologist, delve into the data behind the WHI study. They reveal how the study’s findings were misrepresented, leading to an unnecessary panic and a decline in the use of HRT. This revised edition includes compelling evidence that refutes the claim that HRT causes breast cancer, supported by a list of the WHI’s own retractions.
