BHRT Saved my life...

My gynecologist prescribed Premarin after my hysterectomy at 37 years of age. He told me to just increase the dosage until I felt better. I became a raging lunatic, having way too much estrogen and NO progesterone whatsoever. I had no balance and was irritable, with unpredictable mood swings, and with raging anger at the drop of a hat. It was horrible! Then I discovered bioidentical hormones, and the fact that you can get your levels tested. I asked my doctor if he would be willing to prescribe them, and he was. It was an absolute game changer! I've been on bioidentical progesterone and small amounts of estrogen, and have been my old happy self since 2004, with NO undesirable side effects at all! PLEASE please do not take away this life saving therapy!! There is room in the marketplace for both bioidentical and regular hormone therapy. Please do more research to discover the truth about bioidenticals. I just don't think I can survive without them. They are that important to my health and well being. Thank you!
