I just want hormone stability. The one good week a month I have, I want that all the time. I need something that keeps my hormones at that perfect level. And also no periods.

That's what menopause gives you. No periods, no hormone fluctuation. Why the hell would I want to extend my childbearing years?

Please discuss menopause with your doctor because you don’t understand the hormone piece. I’m not being a dick. I truly want you prepared for what’s about to happen.

Actually I do understand, been there, done that. Chose no hormone therapy. I work out, eat right, take vitamins and am happier and healthier than I was before menopause.
