This is coming from someone who had a complete hysterectomy in 1992. I have been on HRT since then. I too believe that nothing works better than the Estratest. Not only does it control all menopausal symptoms it increases my sex drive, which was an added bonus. Since I was FORCED to change to a drug that is supposed to be identical to the Estratest, Covaryx I can attest that it is not the same. All the reasons I was taking it, hot flashes, vaginal dryness, mental and emotional well being ect. have returned. I have been on the Covaryx for about 90 days. I am very upset about this. I do know the drug is available in Canda. I am in the process of getting a prescription from my Dr. To get them out of the USA. I will keep you all posted. ## Hi Paula, Sorry to hear about your experience with ...

Hi, I had been having very heavy menstrual bleeding for the last 2 months (Dec/Jan) so my dr. prescribed me norethindrone 5mg to take the first day of my period and to take it everyday. I also have the paragard copper IUD (which is partly the reason for the heavy bleeding). I got my period on Feb. 1st and started taking the norethindrone that day and I have been bleeding every day since then (now Feb. 16th). It started out light and it has gotten heavier the longer I have been on it. It is to the point where I am heavier now with the medicine than without. I am calling my doctor tomorrow but he has been out of the office for the last 4 days. Has anyone else had this problem? Should I just stop taking it? What happens if I stop taking it? I started getting night sweats the first day I to...

got these in the mail I ordered them,but afraid to take them they were not conpletey sealed! ## I ordered them too for being ignorant. These people dont eveb have a website. Its a treally fishy new company. They dont list any inredients, dont have a real working site and what they sent you isnt a trial, its a full sized bottle that you can use 14 days worth of it for free and return it after. If you dont return it after 14 days they will charge you for the entire bottle which is $85 dollars. I fell for this because I didnt bother to read and just ordered it because I was in a hurry and when I got home and read I was like O.O they are a typical scammy site with really cheesy claims. I checked out their "website" and they lie about several things like that ou can contact then by e...

Is Estradiol made by Barr gluten free? ## Hello, Pam! How are you? What are the markings on it? I'm sorry, but without this information, I can't check the inactive ingredients for you. Sometimes what's listed by the pharmacy is just a licensed distributor, not the actual manufacturer. Can you please post back with this additional information? Thanks! The FDA classifies this as a hormonal supplement and lists the typical side effects as possibly including nausea, dizziness, headache, irritability and PMS like symptoms. ## I have the same medication question.

I purchased Clomid to help me and my partner conceive, but it came in these blister packs with no imprint whatsoever. Not to mention, they break REALLY easily, and they're from India, so I'm not sure if what Clomid does for fertility HERE in the US does the same for India... I don't usually take anything that doesn't have an imprint, but me and my partner are desperate. Can someone please help me with this? Should I take them or not? How much should I take and when?

I had periods after a gap of 2 months. I started with little bleeding. Flow got heavier and with clots as days proceeded. I am using ETOSYS on advice by doctor since 10 days. Now even after 15 days, bleeding has not stopped in spite of using tablet. Can someone please suggest me some tablets for immediate solution as well as treatment? ## Hello, Madhu! How are things going? Has the bleeding stopped, yet? It sounds like you might have a hormonal imbalance. Heavy bleeding with clots usually signifies very high estrogen and low progesterone, which means you may not be ovulating. Have you consulted your doctor again, yet? You may need to take some type of hormone to help rectify the situation, but only they will be able to let you know for sure. ## Hello i am samvi and 22yrs old i got my pe...

Hi, my wife is 6 weeks pregnant. The doctor prescribed her Progesterone 200. Dr. told her it can be administered orally or vaginally. Which one works best? She had a little spotting also. ## Hello, Vakeri! How are you and your wife? Congrats on the baby! Using them vaginally usually results in more absorption of the medication. If it's taken orally, the liver tends to process out most of it. The FDA lists its typical side effects as possibly including nausea, dizziness, headache and irritability. Is there anything else I can help with?

Hi there, I have been taking antibiotics for the past five days, with two days remaining in the course of treatment. I developed thrush within the first two days of taking antibiotics. I'm just wondering if I'm able to take a course of fluconazole one now or if I have to wait until I finish the course of antibiotics? Thanks ## Hello, Lucy! How are you? You can take it now, unless your doctor advises otherwise. Some women that are prone to thrush take it with their antibiotics as a preventative.

If you're going to take this drug understand that mares are kept pregnant for 11 months in stalls where they cannot turn around. There are many bioidentical alternatives that are better for you and do not involve the torture of animals.

I've been prescribed fluconazole but I took the morning after pill last night.. May seem like a silly question but can I take the fluconazole if it's within 24hrs of taking the morning after pill? ## Hello, Lux! How are you? I didn't find any problems or interactions listed between these two medications, but it's always best to double check to be sure. The FDA lists the typical side effects of Fluconazole as possibly including nausea, dizziness, headache and stomach pain. Is there anything else I can help with?
