There was a question about how good an older woman's life would be if she had high levels of estrogen in her blood.
In fact, this is a very popular topic, and specially trained people revise the scientific information about this every few years. Then the revised information is published in the public domain so that everyone can get acquainted with it. The latest recommendations on this topic were published in 2016.
So in terms of the beneficial effect of female hormones on older women, it turned out that the real benefit was only to reduce hot flashes and dryness in some places.
We have already discussed tides in articles about the increase body temperature.
The point is that before menopause in a woman, her center of body temperature regulation in her head works on temperature drop of 0.4 degrees, and during menopause it works instantly from the minimum drops. This is how the tides are made.
With dryness, too, everything is clear. Here life is bad without female hormones.
Well, bad things will go on.
After 10 years from menopause or after 60 years, the woman's heart and blood vessels will no longer be able to benefit from estrogen, but only the risk of developing any heart attacks or strokes will increase.
The blood will also react poorly to hormones, and blood clots will form in it.
Plus, the risk of certain types of cancer will increase, and therefore the harm from hormones will far outweigh the benefits.
So there is no need to rely on modern medicine, which will help to remain as young and fresh after 60 years. Medicine in this matter has taken a tough stance. Someone will have to sacrifice something to save the head from a stroke, the heart from a heart attack, and the pulmonary artery from thromboembolism.
