This sounds like Dr. Sarrel is talking about the WHI study, this is not written or said but should be. Also, when he talks about "the second hormone" it should be identified as a synthetic progestin commonly known as Provera. Then I would say this article and video are great!
Next thing that people need to know is that there is an alternative to the Provera, it is what our own bodies use, natural progesterone. It doesn't cause the adverse effects that Provera does, and may actually be protective of heart disease and breast cancer. I have been using it for my patients on HRT for 26 years and it protects the uterine lining from becoming overgrow and forming cancers; this has been proven with the PEPI study 12 years ago. So why do most doctors and researchers continue to work with Provera?
