My life barely felt worth living before I started cBHT. I had terrible hot flashes and this resulted in lack of sleep, no libido, foggy mental state, constant irritability. I literally hated the person my hormone imbalance was making me. Within two weeks (I kept a diary) of starting cBHT I was back to my old self! It was the most life-enhancing thing I have ever experienced. I didn't want to start HRT with a pharmaceutical because of ethical reasons so if it wasn't for cBHT I would have continued to suffer. I have been on cBHT for over 10 years now and dread the day these ever become unavailable. THEY ARE A LIFE-SAVER!
