Hormones, stroke-risk & active prevention.

We all know that birth control pills increase clotting risks, especially over the age of 35 & particularly in smokers. It also appears that the culprit isn't always the synthetic estrogen that birth control pills contain. Instead it may relate to the synthetic progestin they contain instead of the estrogen. The powers that be insist that hormone therapy not be given after the age 60, citing an increased risk of clot-related strokes. Though valid for oral hormones this is totally invalid for natural, non-oral estradiol, which categorically does not increase the risk for clots or strokes. At the same time hypertension, a major contributory factor for stroke, is reduced naturally, when smoothy delivered, precision forms of estradiol are used.  Thus expertly administered hormone therapy can proactively reduce stroke risk, whereas antidepressant drugs which governments recommend in lieu of hormone therapy, actually are associated with an increase in stroke risk. So who exactly is running the asylum?
