  |

Hi, I am going through menopause, and have some symptoms like hot flushes and mood swings. I heard this could be related to estrogen deficiency. Does it mean I can relieve these symptoms by taking some extra estrogen?

Hi, I suffer from estrogen deficiency too. I am 59 years old, and have this problem for almost five years. It started with hot flushes and emotional lability, and now I have changes in skin and hair, weight gain and sleep disorders. Estrogen deficiency can also cause acceleration of the bone-degradation process, which leads to bone loss. I was considering a postmenopausal hormone replacement, but I heard it isn’t healthy. A friend told me that taking estrogen could cause some serious diseases like breast cancer, cysts, and thrombosis. I am afraid to risk with this hormonal replacement, because I already have some breast cancer cases in the family, and I don’t want to push my luck. However, if you’re not afraid of those diseases, you can always try this therapy.

| Try some NATURAL Progesterone and BIEST (combo of NATURAL E2 &E3) script from DR and available from compounding pharmacist. I would suggest a SALIVARY HORMONE PROFILE firstly |
