Herbs instead of hormone replacement prescriptions?!
Question:
Herbs instead of hormone replacement prescriptions?
Once medication hormone replacement is removed from my system and herbs are replaced , will there be weight loss? Taking hormone replacement medication, I gained 20lbs. and hate it!

Oh my God I so have your answer!!!! I was having hot flashes night sweats, bitchy as hell, the whole gamut. I started taking Estroven, a natural OTC med. It helped to lessen the symptoms, but not eliminate them. Then my pharmacist, also going thru it suggested Soy Isoflavones, also a natural, OTC supplement. Symptoms are gone!!! Or at least virtually so. So I take the Estroven and soy. My Mom took prescription hormone replacement meds for years. I can't say this was the cause, but she developed severe and sudden breast cancer and had a double mastectomy and has to take cancer meds all the time now. I say go natural. It's working for me. Good Luck.
Peace,
