I am 59 years old, had a hysterectomy at age 25, my ovaries removed (one was already Shriveled, the other had a cyst) 10 years ago. I have spots of endemetriosis on my intestines, and have been on .625 Mg. of premarin for 20 Years. My doctorsuggested I quit taking it since I have slight hypertension. It has been 1 1/2 months,and the hot flashes and night sweats are horrible. I wake up 3 & 4 times a night and have difficulty going back to sleep. I am also feeling very tired and out of sorts with little energy. What would you recommend?

Dear Gail:
Sorry for the delayed answer, but I have been out ill. I would recommend not stopping the estrogen therapy, and go online to our patient empowerment program, send in the history form, and get a suggestion for the natural bioidentical estrogen in the sublingual tablet to use. This can be ordered on RX from our Pharmacy, we do accept hundreds of insurance plans and ship everywhere. We can also add in some DHEA or Testosterone if it is needed to help with weight loss, energy, and libido; we will talk about that during the consultation with you. Here is the patient empowerment to follow, so we can help you get re-balanced soon, see line # 2 or # 3 for the link: To learn more about how we can help you get started on bioidentical hormone replacement therapy and feel better through our “Patient Empowerment Program” click here http://www.bpharmacysolutions.com/hormone/overview.asp or post this in your web browser. This program was developed to assist you in getting started on the natural bioidentical hormones. It empowers you through knowledge and education to approach your physician and get the natural treatment you are looking for. We provide physician referrals, as part of our program. The patient empowerment program is a full in-depth consultation with a consultant pharmacist whereby we evaluate your symptoms, lab work of your hormones (if performed), and any other pertinent laboratory results via phone consult. We then make an assessment and write a clinical consult note that includes recommendations for natural bioidentical hormones that you can provide to your doctor. If you have already discussed bioidentical hormones with your doctor or if your doctor refuses to prescribe them after reviewing our recommendations, we will provide you with a referral to a physician in your area that will prescribe bioidentical hormones. We would like to help you feel better, and be your compounding pharmacy in the future. We ship all across the country, and accept hundreds of insurance plans for reimbursement. After you fill out the consultation form, you will be contacted by one of our consultant pharmacists within 2 business days to set up a consultation. Alternatively, to get started you may call 1-800-728-0288 and request to schedule a consultation with one of our pharmacists or forward an email requests for a consult to info@bpharmacysolutions.com. We look forward to speaking with you.
