@dr.amybkillen: Dear Mom... 🌹 I'm sorry your doctor made you feel guilty for taking estradiol and progesterone. I'm sorry your doctor was not up to date on the literature. I'm sorry that the FDA's warning label on estrogen made the misinformation around hormone therapy worse. I appreciate that you listened to me, despite the fear they threw at you. I'm grateful that at age 79 you have no ongoing medical problems, have a clear mind, clean arteries and a responsive metabolism. I hope your GP doctor sees what a healthy woman looks like and stops making women feel guilty for choosing to make hormone therapy a part of their longevity programs. 🌷 Love, Amy

I'm 76. I'm on estrogen, progesterone and testosterone. Been on it since about 2004. I get it from a boutique provider and do not tell my primary care physician.

Our medical system is a disgrace. Thank goodness your mom is a strong, independent thinker. And has you!

Primary doctors don’t know anything and it’s really worrisome.

Isn’t it the reverse? Isn’t it protective of dementia and heart disease?

My MIL had to fight for that patch. She passed away at age 89 wearing it, and I am convinced that's why she lived so long.

That’s a nice thought but her doctor has dug in their heels and will never admit they were wrong.

Bp fine CAC zero. I still have fear of HRT. Rn for 40 yrs and worked ICU, cath lab and heart surgery. So many variable and not all about chol. Every single person on statins have HDL LOW. Never understood why HDL NOT important once on statins. Anyway started low dose prempro today but dang ingrained in my brain!

Can you explain why it was put on the list? Was it the patriarchy again?

Good for your mother for hanging in there and putting herself first. Just because their doctor does not mean they are right

Do you think women in their 70’s can start E&P, or is there a time limit for starting?

That’s the thing about science. It’s only as good as our latest study. Her doctor wasn’t doing anything wrong. He was just following the latest findings.
