I have a strong family history of osteoporosis. My mother suffered many painful fractures including spinal fractures. Traditional hormone replacement resulting in her needing a total hysterectomy in her 60's. I did not want the same faith. I began cBHT in my 50's. I did develop osteopenia which was stabilized by an adjustment with testosterone. I have avoided sleep disruptions, hot flashes, vaginal dryness etc. using cBHT. I have had zero side effects or issues. I have been an OBGYN RN for 45 years. I have seen many women fail taking traditional HRT. Of the many women I have told of my personal experience if they subsequently chose to go the CBHT route they have had positive results as well.
Taking away access to this option to individualize and used a plant based natural approach would be beyond detrimental for those of us who have used cBHT. Please seek out information from those who are the most affected before making decisions in a vacuum.
