You will also need progesterone if you have had endometriosis - like I did. It stops any remaining endometriosis from activating.
It is not a temporary thing for me, I intend to stay on it forever and there is no proof that that is a problem. A lot of drs still read the flawed research about HRT.
My aunt had breast cancer but it was from smoking, drinking and eating fatty food. She never used HRT.
Best of luck for you.

Just think...no more periods and bleeding, no more faffing about with contraception....you'll be FREE !!😄
Do exactly as they say after surgery....if they say, don't even lift a teacup then don't Hun....and hopefully get on with the rest of your life.
All the very best to you.💕
