Sadly I knew about the dangers of hormone therapy creams back in 2006-2010. I warned one of my best friends as I noted her male dachshund looked like he had an active litter of pups due to her personal use of estrogen cream. I warned her that these creams affect those around them.
I had no idea men used testosterone creams and that my children were possibly exposed to them. My children were not exposed in my home, as no adults in my home used any. I'm just not that stupid.
What terrible side affects to children, grandchildren, and any child exposed to adults using hormone creams face?
A 7 year old girl may suddenly and fully develop. When young girls experience puberty, they finish growing taller and may have additional reproductive problems.
An older more developed female child may have extreme and possible painful uterine problems leading to extensive medical interventions, and/or emotional problems.
Young males can develop early.
Already developed young males may experience extreme and disabling mood swings.
Hormone creams can wreak havoc in a family.
It even more terrible when you have no idea what is happening or why. When you think maybe you are doing something wrong, that you're just a bad parent as your children fall into physical and emotional chaos.
Because you don't know about the creams used and your children's exposure, your doctors may sit you down and tell you your child likely has a brain tumor in the hypothalamus.
Doctors may prescribe what should have been unnecessary therapy drugs leading to dangerous side effects such as heart rhythm problems that can put your child in threat of sudden heart arrhythmia.
I knew that hormone creams were dangerous so I warned my friend about the impact of these creams on her dog 14 years ago.
I was so close to knowing, and yet I was clueless.
To protect your children, please refrain from using these creams and make sure that all adults in your children's lives do not use them around your children.
As adults who have already had children, we should be willing to endure the challenges of growing older without threatening the reproductive futures of our children and grandchildren.
