I was on hrt from age 50 to 69. for the last year the product i was on has been discontinued and i would like to go back on to hrt?

HRT: Most obstetricians discontinue HRT because estrogen, in some patients, increases the risk of breast CA. However, if you have symptoms which will respond only to estrogen, the benefit may exceed the risk. As long as you are aware of the downside, your OB may prescribe HRT for you, with certain instruction to lower the risk of breast CA.
