HI
Well come to HCM
I really appreciate your concern, looking to your age better not to have any hormone medicine because what ever happens as long as menses is concern is physiological phenomenon and that does not need any treatment history of pulmonary clot is nothing to take anything with this, but avoid hormone therapy if not indicated or does not have any disease hope this information helps.
