Was suffering hot flashes, brain fog, and joint pain to the point that I would have to stop working if not for bioidentical hormone therapy. I work as a nurse and to be in the middle of a conversation and totally forget what you are talking about isn’t going to keep me employed. Also, the joint pain and fatigue were debilitating. Since starting injectables these symptoms are gone. I also cannot do the synthetic hormones, they make me suicidal.
