Hello,

I will suggest you to tell me exact name of drug you are taking for hormone replacement therapy. There are side effects associated with prolonged use of hormones. Get a consultation with a surgeon done and a mammogram if that is feasible.

Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
Dr. Muhammad Faisal Bacha, Internal Medicine Specialist
