Compounded bio-identical hormones have been a life saver for me. When I approached menopause, not only was I having hot flashes and night sweats, but my emotional state was unbearable. It felt like a monster lived inside of me and every time I opened my mouth to talk to someone, it came out in a mean and hurtful way. I couldn't seem to stop it. My doctor tried traditional hormone replacement therapy but that caused heavy bleeding with large blood clots. Eventually, he prescribed compounded bio-identical hormones and like a miracle, I was my old self again. The heavy bleeding stopped and my emotions leveled out, the hot flashes and night sweats stopped and I was able to sleep well. I am forever grateful for compounded hormones. They continue to support a high quality of life for me.
