I am very excited to start bio-identical hormones next week! I have gone through all the evaluations and will soon begin my first regimen. I’ve struggled with extremely heavy periods taking me to anemia and almost a blood transfusion for the last five years. I’ve tried surgery to remove polyps twice, birth-control pills and IUDs, and even consider a hysterectomy.
After undergoing surgery and being told that my only option was to have my uterus removed or go on long-term birth control I was discouraged. Both of those options can lead to complications from which I wasn’t willing to take the risk for the next 10 years before I go into menopause.
I am so grateful to have the safe alternative natural option. Please do not let the FDA take this option away from me. Because without this option, I will continue to suffer and be miserable each month!
