re: Natural Estrogen Levels Do Not Correlate With Coginitive Decline

As I read through the various articles on hormones on this site I find it very difficult to tell whether or not the view is for or against BIO-Identical estrogen - I think you are saying it is OK for a few but the average woman would find it very hard to decide if she should take even bio-identical estrogen from the way the articles are written. I was tested and had low estrogen and only slightly low progesterone. I was having migraines every week and used progesterone cream alone and it had no benefit for the migraines. When I added compounded bio-identical biest sublingual along with a compuonded progesterone cream the migraines have stopped and other symptoms improved also. I honestly, after reading numerous books, do not believe that in proper balance there is anything harmful about bio-identical estrogen for women who are low. I know when my levels dropped that's when I started noticing some fine lines on the face too - and I was already eating a very good diet, taking supplements and exercising. Who wants to watch their body start looking like an old lady any sooner then necessary? And many good doctors have seen many benefits in their patients from BALANCED application of bio-identical hormones - bones, heart, brain, skin, sexual health and emotional well-being.
