Hormone Replacement Therapy

Until the recent release of the Women's Health Initiative study, hormone replacement therapy (HRT) had been the standard treatment for women seeking relief from menopausal symptoms. Medical experts even encouraged doctors to prescribe HRT drugs as a preventative measure against heart disease. However, the Women's Health Initiative , which was conducted by the National Heart Lung and Blood Institute, revealed that HRT drugs significantly increased the risk of heart attack, cancer, and other serious conditions that it was prescribed to prevent.

Experts estimate that as many as 6 million women may have been adversely affected by HRT . If you or a loved one has suffered serious injury or death because of HRT, please contact us today to consult with an experienced hormone replacement therapy lawyer FREE of charge. You may be eligible to seek compensation for your losses.

Dangers of Hormone Replacement Therapy

HRT drugs such as Premarin, Prempro, Activella, Premphase, FemHRT, and Ortho-Prefest have recently been linked with numerous serious side effects. In addition to some of the well-known side effects like bleeding, insomnia, mood swings, headaches, and nausea, HRT has also been shown to increase the risk of several serious health conditions and events, including:

Stroke 40% increase
Heart attack 29% increase
Blood clots 200% increase
Breast cancer 26% increase
Dementia 200% increase

Hormone Replacement Therapy: Risks vs. Benefits

Because of the newly discovered dangers associated with hormone replacement therapy, HRT drugs should not be taken to treat mild menopause symptoms. There are safer alternative treatments for mild menopause symptoms as well as for preventing heart disease and breast cancer. Experts have therefore concluded that hormone replacement therapy drugs should never be used for these purposes. Those who suffer from serious osteoporosis should consult with a doctor to weigh the risks and benefits of HRT.

Your Legal Rights

If you or a loved one has suffered a serious HRT side effect, you may be entitled to seek damages including lost wages, pain and suffering, medical costs, and more.
