I'm with you on that page. My menopause started with a lot of problems, like hemorrhage, not just heavy bleeding, at the most awkward times, like at work with customers? So, my doctor put me on estrogen/progesterone to stop it, which worked. She kept me on this for about 6 years, until there was some type of alarm bells and doctors took their patients off it. So, like you I had no woman in my very large Irish family that had any cancer, much less breast? So, as my cancer was estrogen dependent that's at least part of the reason I got breast cancer. And like you I look younger than my age, 79, with natural black hair, which people think it's dyed. It's not! I also have decided not to have any Arimidex, because I feel having taken estrogen/progesterone before which messed with my body, I'm not going to fool around with my body again, especially as it makes your bones weaker. Then another pill for that. No. Blessings on your forward journey.

I blame my actual breast cancer on taking my estrogen/progesterone right up until they found the cancer. But, i thnk i I had just enough natural estrogen in my body that I'm not all dried up now. In my peri menopause I had awful bleeding like you mention. I remember standing in the bathroom at the airport in Tahiti and my white pants were covered with blood. I had to wash them in the sink and put on wet pants. My good friend, a teacher, was horrified to find herself in front of her class bleeding like crazy.
We've been through it all and I hope to still have a long, healthy life ahead of me.Thanks for responding!
