>>Why did you stop estrogen back then?<<

Expense, didn;t want to find a new doc to prescribe when I moved, thought

progesterone was covering my needs and I was old enough to not need it any more.

Ah mistakes!. Maybe stopping estrogen was the wrong choice for me too,

though I didn't think so at the time. I was having headaches I

attributed to it, still having hot flashes at even the highest possible

dose,and mainly because I believed premarin is an unethical product. I

also didn't like what I read about plant estrogen side effects in the

PDR, so didn't want to take those either. So I didn't.

Baseline serum labs then adjusting hormones slowly rechecking every few

months as you go.

Val -

So you recommend blood testing vs. saliva?

If pre-menapausal, do the tests need to be done a certain time of the

month, like for saliva?

I think as baseline BEFORE any sex hormone repacment is started the slaivca is

fine, but it is affected BADLY by exogenous sex hormones. Then the serum testing

I feel is more accurate.
