good information

I liked Ito's book. I found it well organized but also it has a verysupportive tone to it. I don't want "fake" hormones to getme through menopause. I ordered some cream that contained wild yamand other phytoestregers from my favorite site [recommended in Ito'sbooks],... I think we can follow Ito's suggestions and not be barragedwith the effects of "the change."

We can make it without pharmeceutical estrogen.

Dee Ito has the right idea. Wild Yam cream or gel (or as I call it "wildyamjam"), red clover, black cohosh. For you perimenopausal women out there, you can use these natural supplements with a great deal of success. I'm not growing hair in weird places. My moods are generally upbeat, my libido is fine, and I don't need synthetic estrogens or progesterones (which made me depressed) and I attribute it to the above alternative supplements.
