The Bioidentical HRT Dilemma

"Our scientific power has outrun our spiritual power. We have guided missiles and misguided men." -- Martin Luther King Jr


Learning all about bioidentical hormones and the role they play in your emotional, physical health and the ageing process, presents you with a huge dilemma; if you take only the advice from your mainstream doctor and do nothing holistically to slap a red light on the ageing process by replacing missing hormones, you'll be keeping the medical profession in business with hospital appointments, tests, surgery and life- long medication.  Even if you accept synthetic HRT, you'll still experience long-term health problems because HRT does not restore your empty hormonal tank. Nor does HRT deal with new negative health symptoms that show up on a regular bases,  and for sure, once you stop taking HRT as mainstream doctors advises women just to use HRT for a few years due to cancer and heart disease risk, all your menopausal symptoms will return with vengeance.


If you don't fancy all the usual suffering that most people accept as old age, because ' it's the change of life', or it's the menopause and it's natural, you have to search for a natural alternative such as bioidentical hormones. I am on bioidentcial hormone therapy for life now, there's no way that I am ever going back to the menopause and all the negative health deterioration.  All those endless symptoms that it caused, and if in ten years time something happens to me as a result of using bioidenticals, then I won't complain because I would have lived ten amazing years emotionally and physically flying. Before discovering bioidentical hormones, I had been deeply depressed and had lived in my bedroom for five years, cut off from the life that I had previously known with endless acute symptoms.

I've met a lot of post menopausal women that don't want to have their 28-day cycle back because they bought into the myth that the menopause brings freedom from monthly periods and childbirth, etc. But, having a period tells you that your hormones are at optimal levels and your body is functioning and you still won't have to worry about falling pregnant. Remember- mimic nature is the name of the game and stay away from static doses.  I never really thought about my menstruation cycle until it was gone and I became a sick and very old woman overnight. Give me a period any day, rather than all the mental and physical suffering that had replaced them.

The only bioidentical hormone experience I've had, is with the Wiley Protocol and as The Wiley Protocol website states, “Relief is in the rhythm.” The Wiley Protocol is multi-phasic rhythmic dosing, meaning that the topical creams and their amounts vary throughout the 28 day cycle to restore the hormone levels of a woman in her prime. There are four levels that are predetermined by blood tests and they are given in varying amounts twice a day, that mimics the body's original flow of oestrogen and progesterone peak to fall.
There will be much debate over middle aged women peaking and flowing at any age similar to a younger woman in her 20-s, but it's your life and you have to live it in the best health you can develop for yourself. What really matters is how healthy you are and how much you want to feel alive?


You must do what feels right for you, whether science, family or friends favour or disapprove of your quest for health.
