Upon going into menopause, I experienced a lack of energy, sexual energy, hot flashes, etc. Using BHRT has helped me tremendously. I will not use Premarin as this is a manufactured drug from pregnant mares. It does not assimilate the same as compounded hormones. My mother used it and it caused too many problems to mention.
I have been very happy on my BHRT for 15 years and wouldn't take any other medication.
