I am 70 years old. I had a complete hysterectomy in 1992 (ovaries were removed). I was on hormone replacement therapy until 2008. Because I have heart issues, I was taken off the HRT I was using. This threw me into extreme menopause - my cholesterol, blood pressure both shot up and I experienced other health issues. I began a regiment of cBHT approximately 10 years ago and my quality of life is dramatically improved. My health has improved radically.
