I have never felt better after starting my hormone creams. I am now 76 years old. I had a complete hysterectomy at 39 and suffered from depression, hot flashes, and overall not feeling "right". Hormones have given me a new lease on life. I will not give them up and PLEASE don't take them away. It is bad enough that insurance will not cover them, but I am willing to pay for them out of pocket.
