For over 30 years I suffered with eight or more debilitating migraines a month. The migraines were triggered by hormonal imbalance. When I was younger, I could not take the pill. Anytime there was a fluctuation in my hormones, whether through medicine or my monthly cycle, I would have a migraine that kept me from functioning. About four years ago I found a doctor that put me on compounded bioidentical hormones. They can tell exactly what hormones I need and how much I need. I have not had a migraine in over three years and I am going through menopause with no problems at all. I have lots of energy and am off all of the medication I was taking for migraines. I am turning 60 this year and I haven't felt this good in years. I contribute this to access to compounded hormones - they changed the quality of my life.
