[rosacea] Re: birth control

Hi Aurelia & KHM,

I thought the forum topic was great and added a link to it on the
Hormonal Influences page on the RSRP:

http://rosacea-research.org/wiki/index.php/Hormonal_Influence

FYI, bioidentical hormone therapy has been getting a lot of news
coverage in the states here lately, along with other forms of hormone
therapy. Here's a news article discussing some of the recent
controversies over bioidentical hormone therapy in particular:

http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/8007573/

And the official position of the North American Menopause Society on
the bioidenticals:

http://www.menopause.org/bioidentical.htm

As with all forms of therapy, there a pros and cons to be considered
here. Please be sure to discuss them with your doctor...

Thanks again...

Dan
