Develop a list of pros and cons that a woman should consider before beginning estrogen replacement therapy

The cons are that there is an increased risk of uterine cancer unless progestin is added to the therapy, there may be a link between taking ERT and breast and ovarian cancer, there is a continuation of menstrual bleeding and premenstrual symptoms, and it will need to be taken the rest of the woman's life.
