Functional medicine patients are too educated about hormone physiology to submit to conventional synthetic hormone supplementation. However, if know someone who isn't as well informed this could be very important for them: an investigation just published in the Archives of Internal Medicine demonstrates a strong association between breast tenderness after starting hormone therapy and breast cancer. As you know, there is no sound medical reason for using conjugated equine (horse) estrogen and synthetic progestins.
