Upped the Estrogen!

Hi Ladies,

Well, just when we think we are home free, something rears its ugly head. 

Night sweats started again so my GYN told me to double my dosage of Estrogen. Well, it worked, I am no longer having night sweats.  It's really strange how our hormones change so quickly. I have also begun taking a vitamin supplement through Nutra Metrix.  It is a 3 oz. drink I take every morning before I eat or drink anything else and it has been made into a cocktail for me specifically based on my DNA for health. I had to do a swab and send it to a lab and then they let me know what minerals and vitamins I was lacking.

I began taking only half of the dosage to start and now I am taking the amount suggested for morning. I am not taking the supplement at night because I want to increase slowly.  Any supplement you take should be approved by your doctor.
