When checking interaction based on authoritative sources Drugs.com, Rxlist.com, Webmd.com, Medscape.com there are contraindications or side effects that may cause harm or increase the negative effect from drug use in presence of concomitant diseases.

Consumer:

The use of estramustine, a combination of estradiol and nornitrogen mustard, is contraindicated in patients with active thrombotic or thromboembolic disorders, unless the tumor mass is thought to be the source of these conditions. Estrogens, particularly in high dosages, can increase the risk of thrombotic events, myocardial infarction, and strokes. Therapy with estramustine should be administered cautiously and only after careful consideration of risks and benefits in patients with cerebrovascular disease, coronary artery disease, or a history of thrombotic or thromboembolic disorders.
