So, am I understanding you correctly, that since Amberen doesn't contain hormones, that I could consider it safe to take? My MD wasn't concerned after reading about it, noting the same thing about the ingredients that you do, but he did suggest that I consider stopping for a month and having my blood drawn again to check my estradiol levels. I'm also checking with my surgeon at the breast center at Yale. I have no intention of taking HRT or bioidenticals or even soy products. I worried that the increase in estradiol that the amberen may be responsible for may further increase my chances for getting breast cancer.
