    Reversal of fortune, hormone therapy edition

    Back around 20 years ago, women got a scare when they were told that hormone therapy could increase their risk of cancer. But it turns out the people who released that info were bureaucrats, not the scientists doing the study. They were half wrong — and it’s a major half.

    It seems that — after a 20-year study of 160,000 women — there’s a very big difference depending on the type of hormone therapy.

    Estrogen plus progestin therapy does seem to lead to an increased cancer risk, but estrogen-only therapy not only doesn’t have that cancer risk, but can reduce it as well as coronary heart disease.

    Testosterone Replacement Therapy: Not Just a Guy Thing

    Cancer therapies are continually being researched to provide the best patient outcomes. Less side effects, longevity and cure rates are what is sought after. However, the science doesn’t have to be brand new to be accurate. Many older therapies continue to be the best options due to how they invade the cells, decrease abnormal cell growth, enhance natural cell death without many unwanted cytotoxic side effects. After all, like all disease state therapy research, we lean on the science, the studies that are conducted, and the case studies presented in order to make the best recommendations for patients to ponder their medication pathways.
