Postmenopausal Symptoms
"I was prescribed premarin 1.25 right after a total hysterectomy 11-1983.  This was to help avoid at age 32 hot flashes, dryness in skin and hair, and protect my bones.  Personal dryness.  I took it for 20 yrs.  Then when the doctors thought I was having a heart attack in in 4-2004 they took my off of it cold turkey. in 2-2009 I was found to have stage 1.5 breast cancer.  Cancer dr. told me it was from taking premarin for 20 yrs.  Should only been prescribed no more than 7 yrs.  The cancer was caused by extra hormones.  Extra hormones was driving my endometriosis that was the cause of removing everything in 1983.  My cancer dr. said with my family background I was lucky never to had a major heartattack."
