Advice/Tips
If you loose your ovaries due to accident at a very young age as I did then you really need this or some type of estrogen replacement. However as an ERT for menopausal women, I'd skip it and go straight to the rest of my life. as nature intended. I am now weaning myself off as I am at the normal age to go through menopause and feel it is better to let my body age normally.
