A neuro doctor who specializes in radiation for meningiomas told me that there is a
POSSIBLE link between estrogen and the development of meningiomas. So I would keep on your hormones until you consult with the neuro doctor and get his opinion. As one who has been down this road before, (perimenopause) your quality of everyday life is worth something, too. Secondly, you need a really good gynecologist who can direct you. My opinion is that an OB/GYN has only so much time to keep updated on current research and I chose to see a GYN. who wasn't delivering babies but was reading medical journals more focused towards women at a different phase of their lives.
