72, uterus & overuse out in 2004 taking estragel with good results, no sides effects but doc won t write new rx because of hormone fears. I have no signs of cancer and currently am suffering from increasing dryness and hot flashes. What are my alternatives?
There is a high risk for overuse of such hormones and I would also agree with your doctor not to use those hormones again with fear of cancer development. Unfortunately, the only options left are to go ahead with symptomatic treatment (e.g. if increased acidity then use antacids and change diet). Please speak to your doctor about this.
Best wishes.
