“relief from menopause symptoms thanks to cBHT”

Hello,

After a rocky perimenopause and an even worst first year of menopause, I was prescribed compounded bio-identical hormone cream (E2/Progest Lipoderm 1/200mg/ml cream, 0.5 ml topically before bedtime). It very quickly made a huge difference: my sleep improved, my skin regained its moisture and thickness, my hot flashes went away, and my mood vastly improved. I overall felt much better and intend to continue taking it for the foreseeable.

In addition, I was not a candidate for pharmaceutical synthetic oral hormone replacement therapies, as my mother had a stroke after being prescribed Premarin. So the idea that I could just switch to a regular synthetic hormone pill, no, that I cannot.

Please do whatever is necessary for patients like me to continue this compounded cream therapy that is working so well for us.

Thank you for your time and attention,

Susan Blatt
