Hi Fuscia. I just read this post today- I'm a bit behind, too.
That is a great article. You know, I have a book by Dr. Lee and a bottle of natural, transdermal progesterone . . I haven't read the book or used the hormone yet, but I had planned to some day.
What about all the HRT talk about the progesterone being the culprit? What I've heard about these lastest findings is that estrogen alone is supposed to be safe and it's the estrogen/progesterone pill like premarin that is supposed to be the 'risky' one.
What do you make of all this??

Thanks for the advice on the Effexor. Actually, though, I stopped taking it. I really wasn't getting nausea as much as feeling very, very drugged, having tremors, also having mania. I see the pdoc today, but in the meantime I've been on 50mg zoloft (again). The zoloft makes me spacy and apathetic, also a bit manic- but it's nothing compared to what I felf on the Effexor.

Please let me know what you think of all this new information on HRT, and the 'findings' that estrogen alone is supposed to be safer than progesterone.

Thanks,
Hildi
