Let’s get this straight. It is important to know exactly if hormone replacement therapy is an option for you and if not, then why not. Furthermore, we need to make a clear distinction between systemic HRT and local oestrogen therapy. It is important that all cancer patients understand their options and talk to their doctors about their symptoms.Below are the links about the safety of vaginal oestrogen that you can share with your healthcare provider:Article "A systematic review of randomised clinical trials – The safety of vaginal hormones and selective eostrogen receptor modulators for the treatment of genitourinary menopausal symptoms in breast cancer survivors" is now published and is available at https://doi.org/10.1177/20533691231208473By Prof. Talaulikar https://jamanetwork.com/journals/jamaoncology/article-abstract/2811413The JAMA Oncology study Episode Highlights:00:00 Intro.06:37 No adverse effects from oestrogen use.

Many people say to me they have no idea what their options are, who to ask for help, and that they feel really isolated in their experiences. I started this podcast because there was nothing out there when I was thrown into surgical menopause at the age of 39, which followed on from my cancer diagnosis aged 33.Through the episodes, I want to create more awareness, share information from our fabulous guest experts, doctors and other specialists in the cancer and menopause field. And of course, I will share stories from the people in our community.So that together we can work towards a better menopause experience. For all of us.More educated, better informed and less alone.Connect with Dani:Instagram @healthywholeme  Facebook: @healthywholeme  Website: menopauseandcancer.org Join Dani’s private Facebook group: https://www.facebook.com/groups/menopauseandcancerchathubFor oodles of inspiration, healthy recipes, yoga classes and all round positivity go to her website: https://www.healthywholeme.com/
