I'm never surprised about what family docs do with hormones. I've had two endometrial cancers in the past five years from prolonged unopposed estrogen in women followed by the family docs until they began bleeding, one was on shots, the other on Premarin. >

What the heck is in the estrogen pellet? I find it hard to believe that some one would put a women on unopesed estrogen, is the pellet a combo form of HRT? Personally I would feels uncomfortable not sampling this women's endometrium.
