RE: Is Transdermal Cream/Gel Dangerous?

[Guest guest]

Rosette, research does not support the reliability of saliva testing for sex hormones. I wouldn't bother with it, regardless of what Lee and other lists say.

OK, so I finally found the normal range of estradiol for those using creams and gels on the Aeron website, and it goes from 2 up to 50. That puts me smack in the middle, but I don't like the idea of having so much free estrogen in my saliva and bloodstream.

I am so stressed out tonight. Here I am 61 and I still have to struggle with my hormones. I thought I had finally figured it out, and now I will probably have to start over experimenting with various doses and brands of patches.
