It's important to note that hormone therapy can have side effects that vary according to the type and duration of treatment. These effects may be temporary or persistent, and require close medical monitoring. It's also crucial to understand that, although the hormones used may be of natural or bioidentical origin, this doesn't mean they are risk-free. Certain contraindications, such as a history of stroke, heart attack, breast cancer, pulmonary embolism, phlebitis, liver disease or neurological migraine, must be taken into account before starting this treatment.
