Esterified estrogens / methyltestosterone for Menopausal Disorders "I had a total hysterectomy at the age of 48. I have been on this drug for 19 years and it is a miracle drug with no ill side effects for me. I tried to wean off when I was 62 only to be miserable. Hot flashes, night sweats, no sleep, no energy, headaches, mood swings, and no libido. I have been told that Medicare has excluded this drug and removed from being paid for by insurance due to scientific evidence that it is not effective, ( which is so far from the truth), and not being FDA approved. I feel this is discriminatory and harassment against women who need this hormone replacement."

Esterified estrogens / methyltestosterone for Postmenopausal Symptoms "After a hysterectomy, I've had nearly 4 years of pure misery, ice packs between my legs, headaches, hot flushing through my body. I went through heaps of problems, tests by vascular doctors, a hormone specialist didn't know what to do for me, he took the ovaries thinking that would help. No, it didn't change. So, I was told to go to a teaching hospital. The OBGYN said to try Estratest. I was never able to take birth control pills, they made me so sick, so I was not excited to try them. Well, I did try them, and it gave me my life back!! Now Covaryx has given me my life back."

Esterified estrogens / methyltestosterone for Postmenopausal Symptoms "72-year-old female with total hysterectomy and ovary removal at 45 years of age. Went into menopause immediately. Found an OB-GYN who had me on estrogen and testosterone injections monthly, which worked excellently to avoid symptoms. Moved to another state and health care system, OB-GYN was horrible. She just did not get it. My symptoms were: irritability, low libido, headache, sleep disturbance, severe mood disturbances, tension, depression, vaginal dryness. It is a nightmare. Estratest helped with all of these symptoms 100%. I would prefer to have continued with injections. But, for now, Estratest is at least helping with the symptoms."

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."
