Im on ridaq 12.5mg and pharmapress 10mg for high bb is it safe to still take my estro-pause 2mg for hrt?

Yes: Because you have high blood pressure, you are at greater risk for blood clots. It might be better to change to a topical form of estrogen such as a patch or a compounded cream as this has a lower risk for blood clots. Of course dietary and lifestyle changes to normalize your BP and get off the medications would be ideal.

NO: 2 mg is too high. You should not use more then 1 mg. You have to use Progesterone also to balance the estrogen even if you have had a hyster. Progesterone, not the synthetics, stimulates the p53 gene to protect you from cnacer.
