One of the hormones has helped my ability to relate to people. Being able to relate is crucial to all aspects of life well-being. It also lowers my anxiety, and improves my overall physical and mental functioning. The results have far surpassed conventional medications. There are no side effects. Conventional medication side effects were tearing up my liver and gut. An MD, who is integrative in her approach (holistic) helped me wean from conventional medications and start taking the bioidentical compounded medications. My life has returned to a very full and functional state on the bioidentical hormones. In fact, it is the best state I have been in for decades!
