Donka - sto se samopregleda tice, tu si skroz u pravu. Dobro je kad covjek zna da postoji odredjen riziki i dela shodno tome.
Ipak, mislim da igranje sa hormonima nikako ne moze biti dobro.
Daj boze da te negativne strane hormonske terapije nikad ne odu dalje od promjena raspolozenja, ali sto kaze majmunche, tek sad prisitzu novi odgovori.
Ne mogu da se tacno sjetim, ali mislim da u pakovanju Trisequens tableta cak i pise koliko sansi ili koliko broj od zena koje ga koristi, oboljeva.
Evo nadjoh nesto, malo je poduze...

Other side effects of HRT
As well as benefits, HRT has some risks which you need to consider when you’re deciding whether to take it, or whether to carry on taking it.
Effects on your risk of developing cancer
Breast cancer
Women who have breast cancer, or have had breast cancer in the past, should not take HRT.
Taking HRT slightly increases the risk of breast cancer; so does having a later menopause. The risk for a post-menopausal woman taking oestrogen-only HRT for 5 years is about the same as for a woman of the same age who’s still having periods over that time and not taking HRT. The risk for a woman who is taking oestrogen plus progestogen HRT is higher than for oestrogen-only HRT (but oestrogen plus progestogen HRT is beneficial for the endometrium, see ‘Endometrial cancer’ below).
For all kinds of HRT, the extra risk of breast cancer goes up the longer you take it, but returns to normal within about 5 years after stopping HRT.
Your risk of breast cancer is also higher:
If you have a close relative (mother, sister or grandmother) who has had breast cancer
If you are seriously overweight.
Compare
Looking at women aged 50 who are not taking HRT - on average, 32 in 1000 will be diagnosed with breast cancer by the time they reach the age of 65.
For women who start taking oestrogen-only HRT at age 50 and take it for 5 years, the figure will be between 33 and 34 in 1000 (i.e. an extra 1-2 cases).
If they take oestrogen-only HRT for 10 years, the figure will be 37 in 1000 (ie an extra 5 cases).
For women who start taking oestrogen plus progestogen HRT at age 50 and take it for 5 years, the figure will be 38 in 1000 (i.e. an extra 6 cases).
If they take oestrogen plus progestogen HRT for 10 years, the figure will be 51 in 1000 (i.e. an extra 19 cases)
If you notice any changes in your breast, such as:
Dimpling of the skin
Changes in the nipple
Any lumps you can see or feel.
Make an appointment to see your doctor as soon as possible.
Endometrial cancer
(cancer of the lining of the womb)
Taking oestrogen-only HRT for a long time can increase the risk of cancer of the lining of the womb (the endometrium). Taking a progestogen as well as the oestrogen helps to lower the extra risk.
If you still have your womb, your doctor may prescribe a progestogen as well as oestrogen. If so, these may be prescribed separately, or as a combined HRT product.
If you have had your womb removed (a hysterectomy), your doctor will discuss with you whether you can safely take oestrogen without a progestogen.
If you’ve had your womb removed because of endometriosis, any endometrium left in your body may be at risk. So your doctor may prescribe HRT that includes a progestogen as well as an oestrogen.
Your product, Trisequens®, contains a progestogen.
Compare
Looking at women who still have a uterus and who are not taking HRT – on average 5 in 1000 will be diagnosed with endometrial cancer between the ages of 50 and 65.
For women who take oestrogen-only HRT, the number will be 2 to 12 times higher, depending on the dose and how long you take it.
The addition of a progestogen to oestrogen-only HRT substantially reduces the risk of endometrial cancer.
If you get breakthrough bleeding or spotting, it’s usually nothing to worry about, especially during the first few months of taking HRT.
But if the bleeding or spotting:
Carries on for more than the first few months
Starts after you’ve been on HRT for a while
Carries on even after you’ve stopped taking HRT.
Make an appointment to see your doctor. It could be a sign that your endometrium has become thicker.
Ovarian cancer
Ovarian cancer (cancer of the ovaries) is very rare, but it is serious. It can be difficult to diagnose, because there are often no obvious signs of the disease.
Some studies have indicated that taking HRT for more than 5 years may increase the risk of ovarian cancer.
Effects on your heart or circulation
Blood clots
HRT may increase the risk of blood clots in the veins (also called deep vein thrombosis, or DVT), especially during the first year of taking it.
These blood clots are not always serious, but if one travels to the lungs, it can cause chest pain, breathlessness, collapse or even death. This condition is called pulmonary embolism, or PE.
DVT and PE are examples of a condition called venous thromboembolism, or VTE.
You are more likely to get a blood clot:
If you are seriously overweight
If you have had a blood clot before
If any of your close family have had blood clots
If you have had one or more miscarriages
If you have any blood clotting problem that needs treatment with a medicine such as warfarin
If you’re off your feet for a long time because of major surgery, injury or illness
If you have a rare condition called SLE.
If any of these things apply to you, talk to your doctor to see if you should take HRT.
Compare
Looking at women in their 50s who are not taking HRT - on average, over a 5-year period, 3 in 1000 would be expected to get a blood clot.
For women in their 50s who are taking HRT, the figure would be 7 in 1000.
Looking at women in their 60s who are not taking HRT - on average, over a 5-year period, 8 in 1000 would be expected to get a blood clot.
For women in their 60s who are taking HRT, the figure would be 17 in 1000.
If you get:
Painful swelling in your leg
Sudden chest pain
Difficulty breathing.
See a doctor as soon as possible and do not take any more HRT until your doctor says you can. These may be signs of a blood clot.
If you’re going to have surgery, make sure your doctor knows about it. You may need to stop taking HRT about 4 to 6 weeks before the operation, to reduce the risk of a blood clot. Your doctor will tell you when you can start taking HRT again.
Heart disease
HRT is not recommended for women who have heart disease, or have had heart disease recently. If you have ever had heart disease, talk to your doctor to see if you should be taking HRT.
HRT will not help to prevent heart disease.
Studies with one type of HRT (containing conjugated oestrogen plus the progestogen MPA) have shown that women may be slightly more likely to get heart disease during the first year of taking the medication. For other types of HRT, the risk is likely to be similar, although this is not yet certain.
If you get:
A pain in your chest that spreads to your arm or neck.
See a doctor as soon as possible and do not take any more HRT until your doctor says you can. This pain could be a sign of heart disease.
Stroke
Recent research suggests that HRT slightly increases the risk of having a stroke. Other things that can increase the risk of stroke include:
Getting older
High blood pressure
Smoking
Drinking too much alcohol
An irregular heartbeat
If you are worried about any of these things, or if you have had a stroke in the past, talk to your doctor to see if you should take HRT.
Compare
Looking at women in their 50s who are not taking HRT - on average, over a 5-year period, 3 in 1000 would be expected to have a stroke.
For women in their 50s who are taking HRT, the figure would be 4 in 1000.
Looking at women in their 60s who are not taking HRT - on average, over a 5-year period, 11 in 1000 would be expected to have a stroke.
For women in their 60s who are taking HRT, the figure would be 15 in 1000.
If you get:
Unexplained migraine-type headaches, with or without disturbed vision.
See a doctor as soon as possible and do not take any more HRT until your doctor says you can. These headaches may be an early warning sign of a stroke.
Dementia
There is no evidence that HRT improves processes of knowing, thinking, learning and judging (cognitive function). From a clinical study there is some evidence for an increased risk of dementia among women older than 65 years, who were using another oestrogen/progestogen combination than the one in Trisequens®. It is not known whether this applies to younger women and to women taking other HRT preparations.
Poduzi je text... pardon. U svakom slucaju side effects koje sam obiljezila crvenom bojom, ja imam.
Doduse, mozda bih ih i imala da ne pijem HRT, ko vise zna.
Obratite paznju na recenicu obojenu plavom bojom...
