In the first place, is there any real reason that the mother must have
hormone replacement now? Even if she nurses the baby two years, say,
why can't the hormone replacement begin then?
The story of estrogens for male babies is idiotic. But estrogens may
considerably decrease the milk supply, so they should not be used.
Why should she have a hysterectomy? I don't know the answer, but do all
women who have menopause require a hysterectomy? Is there anyone out
there who knows why premature, or surgical menopause requires a
hysterectomy? Better be a good reason.
