Once menopause began for me I tried many things to relieve symptoms etc. but to no avail. But once my doctor prescribed the compounded medication of Progesterone in combination with Estradiol it made all the difference. The terrible hot flashes stopped, the feelings of being out of control and indecisive have gone and I felt hopeful again. Life returned to normal. I can't imagine going back to life without this medication. I have been so grateful for it.
