Should I take hormones?

Taking post-operative hormone replacement is a complex subject. The medical studies are often conflicting. Generally speaking, the benefits usually outweigh the risks for most patients. There are many safe prescription and non-prescription hormones available. There are some that are derived from plant material, animal material, and others are bioidentical synthetically. You should discuss all these options with your healthcare provider to see what is in your best interest for your long-term health.
