Where can I get natural hormones for Menopau...

[Guest guest]

I had a total hysterectomy when I was 51 after the diagnosis of uterine

cancer. Six years later I am supposedly doing fine (I'm not... have many other

health problems that I try to address as I educate myself about alternative

methods). I, like you, do not want to be on allopathic medications, have been

on several, but have been going off some of them. I am trying to really

learn about herbal and alternative medicine so I can understand what my body

needs. I too feel a need for the balancing of hormones since the body is not

able to make them all any more. I use the progesterone creams sold in health

food stores, but truthfully I don't know how much they do to help. There are

saliva tests available that show what your hormone levels truly are and I

believe these are the most accurate tests for hormone levels. I haven't done

this, but would like to do it, but this is rather expensive and you have really

want the information and then you would have to find someone who could help

you balance your hormones as person is unique in their makeup. I would also

like an enlightened view on this. Am open to all suggestions.

A good friend of mine was ready to have a hysterectomy for fibroids. I

suggested she start using a natural progesterone cream and she is beginning

to see her fibroids shrink after 4 months on the cream. I told her to

please look online and find information on hysterectomy side effects. Her

doc had just said it was a cure all for all her problems w/o telling her

about side effects. I told her about another friend whose doc clipped her

bladder nerve during a hysterectomy and now constantly dribbles. I wonder

if they suggest so many hysterectomy's so they can make their golf course

dues easier? Then of course the pharmaceutical companies will also make out

by putting you on poison pills indefinitely. It's a win win for the doc and

their pharmaceutical buddies. There are many things you can do to balance

your own hormones, foremost using a good natural progesterone cream. My

life was changed drastically in just two weeks on the cream. Many creams

contain estrogenic compounds, you want to make sure you buy one w/o any

additives. . For instance, glycerin will keep it from absorbing, some

contain propylene glycol which is an antifreeze. Progesterone is the mother

of all hormones which is eaten up by estrogen and phytoestrogens. I do

have a paper on additives, ingredients and price of many natural

progesterone creams that I can email to anyone who would like.

Linda,

 

I used black cobash in a product called Estroven, and I use DHEA. Sorry I

don't have time to get info on them right now.
