It takes too much away from getting on though. Everything has risks, even getting out of bed
Even staying in bed has risks, so that's not the point, really.
The fact is: the guidelines and the leaflets are not in synch. If something bad happens and one is not entitled to sue whoever says 'it's safe to take HRT and vaginal oestrogen for as long as it's needed' or 'one year supply of topical oestrogen is equivalent to having one tablet of standard HRT', then one will be hopeless and helpless.
By the way, I keep reading these statements in guidelines, newspapers, magazines and even scientific articles, and none has properly referenced these allegations. Can someone point me to the right direction? Who has studied and found evidence that 'one year supply of topical oestrogen is equivalent to having one tablet of standard HRT'?
