When I was advised to get a full hysterectomy at only 32 due to a cancer scare, my doctor advised me to take traditional pharmaceutical hormone replacement therapies to "manage" my forced menopause. It was a disaster, as my body is highly sensitive and the medicine he prescribed created intolerable anxiety and inflammation. So I stopped taking them. For years, I went untreated. Eventually I felt so "depleted" that I sought treatment from a doctor well versed in holistic therapies. When she checked my bloodwork, she found my hormone levels were very far below optimal levels and prescribed bioidentical hormone therapy for me. Under her care, I've now been on bioidentical hormone replacement therapies for four years. At 58 years old, I have never felt better. I believe in health freedoms when products are found to be safe and effective. I would be devastated if this safe, effective, life-changing solution was taken from me.
