Hormone Replacement Therapy

Progesterone

If you are on Estrogen-replacement and still have your uterus, you must be on Progesterone therapy!

Estrogen stimulates endometrium and if given to a menopausal woman without progesterone to “protect” it, it can cause bleeding or can lead to endometrial or “uterine” cancer. Progesterone can be taken as an oral medication.
