sure you can quit taking premarin (estrogen replacement) if you'd like. be prepared for a potential onslaught of menopause symptoms if you do so. among the symptoms you might experience if you stop taking estrogen are: hot flashes (sometimes called hot flushes) irritability vaginal dryness night sweats i don't list those to try to sway you against going off the estrogen. i only list them so you don't get caught off-guard. i'd recommend talking to your doctor about ways to taper off the estrogen gradually in order to minimize possible side effects. your doctor also will be a valuable source of information regarding both the benefits and the risks of hormone replacement therapy (hrt ) for you given your unique medical history. best wishes to you!
