All the Talk about Hormonal Replacement Therapy
Menopause is a natural part of the woman’s aging process. It is the time when the woman’s period stops. The levels of female hormones can go up and down in the years before and during menopause. Hot flashes and vaginal dryness can occur during this process. Some women usually take hormonal replacement therapy to relieve these symptoms. Osteoporosis may also be protected by (HRT). However, there are also risks with HRT. The risks are heart disease, breast cancer and strokes and are typically at play when HRT is being used, although, each woman’s risk can vary depending on her past lifestyle and health history. The risks and benefits should be discussed with you by your health care provider. If you are deciding to take HRT, then it should be the lowest dose recommended and for the shortest time needed. A re-evaluation every six months should be needed if you’re taking hormones.
There are many women out there who are frightened of taking hormone replacement treatment that they have decided to forget about it. This reaction is not surprising at all because almost every day there is some sort of new scare headline blaring at them saying that HRT causes cancer and even brain shrinkage. The women who were recently told that they could regain their lost sexuality by using hormones are now being warned against it. All of this confusion really is a shame to be honest, because as the result of it, many women are losing out on feeling their absolute best and making the most of their everyday lives. When headlines are blaring, the effort made to inform women about what types of hormones are being discussed is little to none. Also, to add to all the confusion, the names of the hormones most often replaced, estrogen, progesterone, and testosterone, has become generic terms. These specific terms are used freely and without regulation to describe the natural hormones produced by the body, bio-identical hormones and hormone drug products. To make matters more confusing, all hormone replacement therapy, whether it involves hormone drug products or bio-identical hormones is referred to as HRT in most publications. Very few physicians or journalists both to make that distinction as to whether or not they are talking about hormone drug products or bio-identical hormones. Many may not even be aware of this actual distinction. The rare journalist or physician who is willing to distinguish will refer to the information regarding bio-identical hormone replacement as bHRT.
Too high testosterone in an older woman post hysterectomy?
I am a 50 plus year old woman and just found out I have high testosterone (74, normal is 5-21). I have been using a HRT bio-identical hormone replacement cream for three years, but use only half the amount called for, due to cost. Anyone have any suggestions or ideas as to why my testosterone might be high? I had a full hysterectomy in 2006. Thanks so much for any help or suggestions! I am into natural and/or alternative therapies. I take no other medications other than occasional Lorazapam for anxiety.
Could be the estrogen--your body can convert estrogen into testosterone. But it could also be that you have an endocrine disorder and your adrenal glands are just making too much testosterone.

Superior Transdermal Delivery. Like other anti-aging hormones, DHEA is produced by the body in abundant supplies during our youth, reaching its peak between the ages of 20 to 25, then decreasing to much lower levels later in life. During the prime of life, men produce approximately 31 mg of DHEA daily and women produce about 19 mg daily. At forty-five we produce about half this amount and at sixty-five, our DHEA levels are down to about 10 to 20 percent of their peak levels.

![]() Estrogen/Estriol (Bio-identical) Unscented & Paraben-Free - Creme 2 oz. Jar Sale Price: $49.98 Eligible for free shipping!Availability: Usually ships in 24 hours Average Rating: ![]() DescriptionParaben-Free and Unscented. Menopausal Hot Flashes? Night Sweats? Trouble Sleeping? Replenish Your Estrogen Naturally and Safely. Get your life back! Estriol Has Been Used in Europe for Years. Bio-identical Hormones Are Safe and Effective. Non Prescription Bio-identical Natural Estrogen (Estriol Usp) Not to Be Confused with Phyto-estrogens. Bio-identical Hormones Are Safe for Women Help Relieve Menopause Symptoms. Estriol is not a phyto estrogen. Don't confuse phyto estrogens with pure natural estriol USP. The natural estrogen, estriol USP, is made the same way natural progesterone USP is made. Sterol analogues found in many varieties of plants are combined with specific bacteria and the resulting hormone is bio identical in chemical structure to the hormone produced by the human body. Excerpts from "What Your Doctor May Not Tell You About Menopause" by Dr. John R. Lee, M.D. If a three month trial of progesterone plus proper diet and supplements of magnesium and B6 do not relieve hot flashes or vaginal dryness, then low dose natural estrogen may be helpful. All the available evidence we have so far indicates that estriol is the safest estrogen to use to control menopausal symptoms, and that it may even be protective against breast cancer. If you need to supplement some estrogen, you can use a natural estrogen in a cream and that is Paraben-Free. Features
