Due to family history of breast cancer my doctor won't put me on hormones for menopause symptoms. can you reccomend any other treatments?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Yes: There are good other options. Hrt plus has puereria mirifica, a phytoestrogen that helps menopausal symptoms & reduces risk of breast cancer: http://www.Longevityplus.Com/products/longevity-plus-brand/hrt-plus estrovera is a rhubarb extract also proven effective: http://www.Metagenics.Com/products/product-lines/estrovera homeopathy can help too but requires seeing a homeopath so try these first.
