For Postmenopausal Symptoms "I cannot say enough good things about my experience with this drug and progesterone. It has dramatically improved my quality of life. My moods stabilized, I maintained muscle tone, controlled my weight, had no menopause symptoms, and my skin and hair are so much better than other women my age. I am 73. I started taking it at the beginning of menopause. No side effects noted."

For Postmenopausal Symptoms "I was given the half strength of this drug after a complete hysterectomy. In the beginning, it was okay, but within months, I started growing a beard, belly/nipple hair, and muscle structure in my legs was changing compared to before. I started with severe acne on my face - which I NEVER had - I was on it for 1 year, and when taken off of it, the acne cleared within 2 weeks, and other changes started to subside. I went on estradiol only."

"Been taking for 25 years with no problems. Then my Dr. would not refill, so went into depression for 3 months. Got back on script, back to normal. Have had a total hysterectomy in 1997. Do not want to live without script. No patches."

For Postmenopausal Symptoms "JC in 2018 wrote a review that mirrors mine. I have taken this drug for 20 years. My doctor all of a sudden changed it to just estrogen. Although I only have a lot of sadness, crying, decreased libido, and the worst one of all, as if it could get any worse, “a loss so far of 1/2 my hair.” Well, for the moment, I’m taking things into my hands and returning to taking what I have left of this med to see if my hair will stop falling out. But for 20 years, this medication has been wonderful and needs to be put back on the market, or a personal letter of what health risk reason it was taken away should be sent to each patient that was taking it should occur! The public has a right to know, and we should not need to be investigators to find out!"

"I have been taking this medication for 21 years due to having a full hysterectomy at 38 years old. It has been a lifesaver. I have had no side effects. It costs me $45 a month with me using GoldRx because my BC/BS doesn’t cover or help with it. I take it once a day at night. It has allowed me to not have night sweats, libido is great, and actually helps with clear skin. I highly recommend it if you are thinking about it. Talk to your doctor if you have questions."

For Postmenopausal Symptoms "I have used Estratest for 21 years and have appreciated its impact on my sleep, skin, bones, etc. My gyn doc retired, and now someone else is taking over, not a fan of HRT. I'm wrangling with her now as I don't want to stop with the Estratest. I am happy to cut back but not to give it up altogether. My script ran out, and she wouldn't re-up me, and I went immediately back into night sweats, sleep disturbances, etc. We are at a stand-off now, would love to find a different doc, but so far no luck."

For Menopausal Disorders "I had a partial hysterectomy at age 29; started going through full menopause at age 41ish. Was taking estradiol, but had zero libido. Dr. recommended this EEMT to help with that part; however, I still have hot flashes, night sweats, no libido, headaches, massive weight gain even with diet and exercise, so I'm going to a hormone doctor instead - appointment is next month. I am miserable and on the highest dose available."

Esterified estrogens / methyltestosterone for Postmenopausal Symptoms "I started on this 10 years ago after a hysterectomy. I also started at that very same time having severe panic attacks caused by anxiety. I was put on Xanax 1 mg three times a day. Now I am trying to get off the Xanax. Very difficult, even with counseling. I wonder if it is the Estratest that started all of this?"

For Postmenopausal Symptoms "Given that I have been on this medicine for 7 years now, I'm going to say that it works. I assume I will be taking this for the rest of my life, and I'm not sure how safe that will be."
