After menopause I never slept more than three or four hours most nights. My life was a wreck! I would lay awake until the early hours so frustrated and so tired. This continued for almost 10 years. I tried everything: herbs, melatonin, GABA, etc., plus meditation, warm baths, exercise, etc... Everything in the book, but NOTHING WORKED. About five years ago, my PCP, Dr. Renata Teytelbaum tested my hormones and prescribed bioidentical progesterone capsules and vaginal estriol, which I purchase from Pinellas Compounding Pharmacy. For the FIRST time in many years I SLEPT all night through! I continue to sleep all night, every night, like a baby! I am SO GRATEFUL! PLEASE! Don't anyone dare take these products away from me!
