There's actually no evidence that PM can cause blood clots and stroke. Studies actually show that it reduces clotting and platelet count. You're also not taking a concentration of any one molecule, and the doses of more commonly known phytestrogen's are much lower than what has been studied with no toxic effects. Studies have used them in super high doses, way more than you'd even get in 5000 mg of PM.
That's not to say I think people should take huge amounts of PM but as far as I've seen, and researched, there is no evidence for increased blood clotting at doses people are taking here.
As for HRT, there are a lot of factors which significantly affect a persons risk, you can see here if you scroll down: https://www.bmj.com/content/364/bmj.k4810
Maintain a low BMI, preferably under 22, and eat a healthy diet and you'll go a LONG way to mitigating this rare but serious side. As shown in the figure.6, BMI matters: some people even have reduced risk of blot clots on estradiol.
For those who don't understand how to read the data in the study, here's another article. https://jeanhailes.org.au/news/mht-blood-clots
So yah, estrogen can be dangerous but forums seriously exaggerate the risks of low dose E, especially places like susans. The absolute risk is still very small.
