Hi Jules,
My GYN told me to take daily calcium supplements with vitamin D, multi vitamen with B complex in it. I also read adding two TBS of flaxseed meal to your cereal is suppose to help.

I'm doing some research when time allows and trying to figure out how to handle my messed up hormones. Hopefully I can find good information.

Hi Barbara!

I saw this news report on several different stations, and in each instance they did not say what would replace the estrogen, if anything. They have to do something; they can't just leave us out to dry (literally!)!

You're right -- you don't want to see my evil side! If this all comes about, I don't think hubby will want anything to do with me -- I'll be left with only my beloved Jack to keep me company! Oh yeah, and also those garden worms....

ELEVEN DAYS?!? You're right; it doesn't sound like your gyn is very helpful; good thing you have a good GP -- but do you have to wait that long to see him?

Oh, the joys of being a female!

It will be too hard to get this week, because of my school and work scheduale. I want to feel more stable, so I don't come across as a emotional basket case.

You have to remember one thing my doctor and I work for the same Health Group.

My Mum used to take loads of Evening Primrose Oil. This is really supposed to help PMS. And now she takes Bach's Rescue Remedy for general being stressed/emotional.

I've been really suprprised at all these bad stories from Depo. I love the stuff. Your GYN might not have suggested it as it's usually only the first choice for people like me who can't have oestrogen (migraines!).
