In this second discussion on natural remedies versus Selective Estrogen Receptor Modulators (SERMS) used in Female Hormone Replacement Therapy, Dr. Goldstein tells of a patient who was considering taking dong quai instead of estrogen because she was tired of suffering night sweats made by the summer heat. Her remark was “I don’t like the idea of taking drugs, I don’t like the thought that I could increase my risk of breast cancer. I just thought this (the dong quai) could be safer”.

However if it is relieving your hot flashes, you can bet your liver is seeing it as estrogen even if it’s called something else. If they are stopping your hot flashes, they are affecting your body, and therefore they are affecting your breasts, thus you are not avoiding the risk of breast cancer or any other side effect. They’re also going to pass through your liver on the way through your body, so purity is important. Bear in mind, these remedies are not subject to the same intense scrutiny the FDA mandates for prescription drugs.

By contrast, Selective Estrogen Receptor Modulators (SERMS) are FDA regulated, tested on thousands of women, and successful with millions of patients. Please take the above into consideration if you are thinking of choosing “natural� remedies over SERMS for relief from menopausal symptoms.
