FDA approves Climara Pro to treat menopaus...( ransdermal system components. Estrogen...),Health

ransdermal system components. Estrogens with or without progestins should not be used to prevent heart disease, heart attacks, or strokes. Using estrogens with or without progestins may increase a woman's risk of heart attacks, strokes, breast cancer, and blood clots. A woman and her healthcare provider should discuss regularly whether she still needs estrogen treatment. In the absence of data on Climara Pro comparable in scope to that of the Women's Health Initiative (WHI), the risks identified in the WHI should be assumed to be similar for all postmenopausal hormone therapy.
