Hello! I am a 67 year old woman in great health, married long term, have three married children, and now ten grandchildren. I have been taking bio-identical hormone replacement therapy (HRT) from a compounding pharmacy for at least twenty years. I entered menopause early so thought something was wrong with me because I felt so unwell. I went to multiple doctors with no answers, until I finally found one a few years later who tried me on bio-identical HRT. (Low dose estrogen, progesterone and testosterone). It changed my life! It very quickly remedied the many symptoms I had such as severe hot flashes, sleeplessness, weight gain, anxiety, depression, and sexual side effects. My doctor orders a blood lab annually to check my hormone levels and make sure they stay in balance. I have felt more stable in these past twenty years than at any other time in my life. I can wholeheartedly endorse bio-identical hormone replacement therapy, as I have tried going off of it two times through the years to see what would happen and my symptoms began returning both times. Bio-identical hormones are a total game changer for me (and my husband) and I sincerely hope that their use will not become restricted! Thank you for your time!
