Menopause is puberty in reverse. During puberty the female body is
flooded with hormones that we need in order to function properly. During
menopause our bodies are drained of these hormones because we no longer
need them. This is why HRT has been proven to cause female cancers. It's
like trying to ram a square peg into a round hole and going against the
grain. Excuse my frank language, it's fucking with nature.

Those who did not treat their bodies well when they were younger, are
really going to pay for it later. I am age 45 now. My mother completed
her menopause naturally at age 51 (and a half). When did we become such
a pill-filled cry-baby nation? I'm really starting to believe that the
pharmaceutical companies are creating the pills before they create the
disorders.

I guess when people have symptoms of something, they want relief. I have
heard that hot flashes can be pretty bad. Not sure. Not sure I have had
them even though every time I complain of being too warm (which isn't
often), my mom says I am having them.

Well, so are vacceines.

Probably because, for some women, menopause is the crises from hell.
Some women are unable to lead a productive life until it is over, if
it is ever over.

The "disorders" of menopause are NOT a recent invention, they have
been around since the beginning of the human race. I get the
impression that you are among the many women who do not have a problem
with menoipause. My Mother was like that...breezed through without a
qualm. My Sister, now, reported the HOT FLASHES FROM HELL, mitigated
by HRT. She was able to hold down her job thanks to HRT.

In my own case, as a biological male, my hot flashes were bad enough
to go on Premarin, but not bad enough to stay on it when the studies
came out. My Physician yanked me off Premarin at the first news story.

That's a hot-button issue. Where i live, a child cannot go to public
school unless that have been vaccinated. Not to mention who wants their
child to get diseases that we got rid of a long time ago like polio and
measles?

The key-word is some, and everything will eventually come to an end.

True. But who ever heard of "restless leg syndrome" before their was a
TV commercial advertising a medication for it?

I'm peri-menopausal and all is well. My health has always been a
top-priority with me. Full-blown menopause (when it happens) can also
depend on heredity. The women on my side of my family have all had a
good "change of life".

In the first place, I already did before I took the first dose.
