I first started taking BHRT on the advice of my OBGYN whose wife is a psychologist. I'd had HRT before in Premarin and did not react well at all. Thank God, he knew of the difficulties women can have with hormonal changes and imbalances and knew that in European studies BHRT had been a great help to women because they are not derived from pregnant horse urine (which is a barbaric process in the first place) and BHRT is compounded from plants and tailored to an individual's needs- not one size fits all. Since then, my life has been 100% better and my thinking processes and outlook on life is much better than many women of my age (I'm 77). If the government wants to take away my individual RIGHT to my best healthcare, I am doubting that the FDA is a free agency and is basically a political agency bought by Big Pharma. Big Pharma can't make money off these compounded medications, so that's why they want to do this. Disgusting and criminal.
