Helo,
My name is Ardina and I'm from the Netherlands.
After one year Weston Price eating..zero sugar and no fruit I found this forum and will try Ray Peat style..
I have a guestion about estrogen.
When I came in menopause in 2005 my world felt apart..I had 24/7 hot flashes.
Doctors here in Holland are not so willing to subscribe HRT..they tell you just to take birth controle.which I did not
wanted.
So..I sweated till 2010..and I had a heart-attack.
Feeling very missareble..I finally found a doctor who was willing to check my hormones.
At that time I had zero estrogen..but progesteron 5.72 Nmol which is in the lutealfase range.
So this new doctor prescribed a estrogen gel (bio identical)..
I use this since march 2011...for 25 days a minth..and the last 10 days I also use progesteron gel.
Now my hormones are in better balance..
Estrogen is 88.1 pmol/l
progesteron is 2.23 nmol/l
But now I read here things about estrogen dominance..
Do I have to stop with the estrogen-gel????
In advance sorry for my english writing..not my first language.
