For Menopausal Disorders "I have just stopped this drug Bijuva. Took it for 4 months, and it did help greatly with my menopause issues. Then, about a month ago, I began feeling unwell. Headaches, fatigue, tension, weight gain, and even had a TIA at work! I almost died. The ER did every test they could think of... CAT, MRIs, heart scans, bloodwork, heavy metal tests, vitamin levels, thyroid, hormones, etc... Perfectly healthy! I still have brain fog, a constant headache, weakness, and moments of nausea and faintness. I truly have no idea if it is Bijuva, but I am not taking any chances."

For Postmenopausal Symptoms "Definitely lifts that brain fog during the day and helps me sleep. Have been on it for 6 months now. I have had a few headaches and am slightly constipated. My breasts are less puffy compared with the estrogen gel/progesterone combo. I will continue to take HRT for a few more years, but I would like to try patches as well at some point, but will definitely stay with bioidentical products."
