BlueButterfly:
I look forward to seeing how the diet does for you Jari.

As someone who is starting all this fun young and not being able to take estrogen, getting my body to work the best it can with what is has is all I really have! At least the progesterone is helping. Need to be better with exercise and avoid the sweets! (I'm doing terribly this time of year!) I need to protect these bones and heart.

Shadyglade:
CLKD I was talking about shooting down alternatives remedies in the Alternatives section. Nothing more.

HRT and ADs are fine for those who want and can take them but others what alternative choices.

What's the point of this section otherwise?

Shadyglade:
Jari, too found Marilyn Glenvile invaluable during peri.  :xmas: :great:

Did you not see my post Shadyglade?

It is fine to "shoot down alternatives remedies" if there is lack of evidence to support them. CLKD was questioning whether there was evidence. I went onto produce some studies about evidence. The alternatives section is about ANYTHING that is alternative to HRT for menopausal symptoms and for ANYONE to comment - which does include ADs for those who are medically unable to take HRT, as well as lifestyle changes, exercise regimes, fans and other products, herbal remedies, various therapies, mindfulness, CBT, dietary options. It's a long time since anyone tried to suggest we should not criticise anything that is recommended in this section!!!

Bluebutterfly - you are taking progesterone though which is a component of HRT? if you are unable to take HRT then has your specialist said that this is OK?
