Guest guest Posted August 1, 2009 Report Share Posted August 1, 2009 Hello Bret, There are at least three things here that can cause blood clots. The first is cancer itself through increased levels of fibrinogen in the blood. The second is chemotherapy. And the third, as you say, is hormonal therapy, depending on what hormone she is taking. This triad is dangerous. Mike Saturday, August 1, 2009, 3:10:37 PM, you wrote: BP> hormone replacement common and most serious side affect,...blood clotting.
