why does doctors encourage women to take HRT when it is not suitable for the human body?

Why is it the many doctors encourage many women to take HRT or contraceptive pills when they know it is not suitable for the women's body?

I think there is more dangers to the body because it is not the same type of hormone suitbale for the body. Any one have bad experience?

    Yes! I have taken what is known as "Bio-Identical progesterone" and it nearly killed me.

    This is a very dangerous scam. They tell women that it is the same and it is NOT. It is NOT natural!!!

    Never ever ever take hormones.

    my mum she was on it for years and years shes now in her seventies and going through the menopause what the docs fail to tell you is coming off the meds obviously has the same effects as loosing the hormones in the first place.Now mum is older and not as strong to deal with it as she would when younger.

    I had a hysterectomy at 33 yrs old and was in early change by age 40yrs i refused them.My sister went into the change at 50 yrs old tried to go it alone but the gp advised the hormones so she took them.Six months later she had cancer the hormones kicked off the hormone that advances cancer she thankfully has finished her treatment and is recovering but women should be made more aware of all this.
