I just turned 59. 1 started having Fibromyalgia symptoms as a small child. I started having terrible insomnia when I was in high school. I had difficulty getting pregnant. I had acne that I never grew out of. Several years ago out of complete desperation I went for hormone replacement. I currently take thyroid that is compounded just to my personal needs. I have only in the last couple years started taking estrogen. But have taken progesterone for several years. My overall health is the best that it has ever been. I feel better than I have ever felt. I have hope. Without the hormones, I would have possibly ended my life by now. I have chronic pain that will never go away. With the help I get from the hormones, the quality of my life is so much better. The bio- identical hormones have saved my life and given me hope.
