No. I am not. However, these hormones, as we know, work in concert with one another. If I were in this situation again I would want to research this and speak with my provider about how estradiol, testosterone and progesterone work in the body together and whether using the three together may offer some help. I don't have the answers. I am not a medical professional. I am another women who is trying to cast the widest net of inquiry after being subjected to the holes in my treatment caused by the flawed women's health initiative study. At 77 I am interested in it all. One of the many things that I value about this forum is that I am learning all of the time and I am always surprised what I have paths I have not investigated and the someone pops up with a question I have not asked or a path I have not explored. If you don't mind let us know what you discover
Thanks.

@gravity3 I will be seeing my ND to follow up on the HRT treatment that I have been on for about 2.5 months . Unfortunately I don’t perceive any positive effects so far. I’ll ask her about the testosterone . The dose of progesterone that I use is higher than than the estrogen -apparently that is the one that should have a calming effect. Stay tuned.
