If you are oestogen dominant or deficient in progesterone it might make you feel better, but it's not a weight loss aid and you shouldn't really take hormones you don't need.

I've recently started using this due to not wanting to continue with HRT that wasn't working anyway. Early days though, currently applying twice a day.

Im not sure if I am heading that way- menopausal?

My sister and Mum both had started in their 40s, my sister put on weigh living on salads and veggies- I am sadly going that way too.

My GP is happy to test me but he did say the test was not accurate, so I was thinking of buying the cream to see if this would help.

He did tell me Red Clover was used for menopausal women, but I have looked on line and the comments from users were not encouraging.

It tough being a woman - as if we dont have enough to deal with being hypo.

Thanks for your comments
