A book showing that natural hormone replacement offers a safe and effective alternative for the treatment of menopause. This description may be from another edition of this product.
As a practicing pharmacist, it upsets me that such basic knowledge of hormones was not taught in school. Doctors aren't even taught some of the basic information Dr. Wright discusses in this book. I wish all women would read this book and I wish all doctors would open their minds to the information presented in it. For all the thousands of women I know to be using natural hormone replacement therapy, I don't know a single "unhappy customer".
GREAT things come in small packages!

Excellent info about Estrogen, Progesterone & Testosterone

This is a light, quick read, but has a great deal of information you'll have trouble learning elsewhere. Did you know that there are three kinds of Estrogen? That's just for starters. I suffered from depression and fatigue after a hysterectomy, and months of research took me to this book, a new doctor, a new prescription for "natural" hormones, and I'm a new woman, or really I got my old self back, thank God and the authors. Plus, because of this book, I am practically an expert, and I've taken control of my own health care.
Totally restored my life and health

I had a hysterectomy 5 years ago and have been very sick ever since but was diagnosed with Chronic Fatigue Syndrome, Depression and Panic Disorder. It started within a week of the surgery. (symptoms were mild at first but progressively got worse until I was bedridden. I have been declared disabled by a Social Security Disability judge. I have tried various conventional Estrogen Replacement Therapies but without much help . (pills, creams, shots, patches have caused all sorts of reactions - even borderline delirium and total incapacitation. A friend told me about this book and I immediately found an innovative GYN who worked with a compounding pharmacist who cautiously (with slow increases) prescribed this Natural Hormone Therapy for me via a cream since I don't absorb by mouth. Within one month, I began to notice a difference. I am now feeling wonderful for the first time in years - pre-hysterectomy normal. I am so thrilled that I am telling my story to all that will listen. I have friends that have seen such a dramatic change in me that they are buying the book and changing doctors to get off of the unnatural estrogen derived from horse urine they are on. This book is a must reading for all women and doctors who treat them. This information must get out -- had I known, perhaps my 5 year nightmare would have been avoided.
