Hi Patti,
I'd encourage you, if you haven't, to look at the abstracts of papers on PM in Google Scholar. I'm no scientist, but it looks to me like PM is a lot safer than pharm hormones. There are ( I think) 3 kinds of estrogen, and PM replicates the safest form. I seem to recall papers that indicate that PM not only is unlikely to cause breast cancer, but actually to protect against it. The only thing that would make me consider pharm hormones would be the unavailability of PM.
Good luck,
B.
