Do You Feel Like an Alien in your own body?
Most Likely It's Your Hormones!

I'm Barbara Hoffman, N.D. author of Hope For Your Hormones and I have spoken with over 100,000 women about Hormone Balance since 1992. And I want to help YOU!

Ladies, I have heard this feeling described repeatedly over these past many years. Women are saying "I just don't feel like myself anymore and it's debilitating." You say "I'm cranky, depressed, bloated, have no energy, cannot focus, can't sleep and my hair is falling out". Some of you say, "I've been told I'm going crazy" by my husband/children/even doctor! You are at your wit's end. What is going on? Guess, what? These symptoms are related to a condition called Estrogen dominance. A woman can have deficient, normal, or excessive estrogen but has little or no progesterone to balance it. This can make you feel like you are literally losing your mind! I have been consulting on natural hormone balance for almost 20 years and I know I can help you!

But... you say, "I've always learned that we need estrogen as we get older because our estrogen disappears. Not the problem! It's progesterone that becomes overwhelmed or diminished, NOT estrogen.

Let me ask: IS THIS YOU? LOOK AT ALL THESE SYMPTOMS OF HORMONE IMBALANCE!

  • Weight gain
  • Insomnia, restless sleep
  • Fatigue
  • Memory loss
  • Thyroid Problems
  • Acne
  • Menstrual cramps
  • Irregular menstrual flow
  • Depression
  • Anxiety / Panic attacks
  • Osteoporosis, osteopenia
  • Cold hands and feet
  • Breast tenderness
  • Hair loss
  • Mood swings
  • Headache, including migraines
  • Heavy periods
  • Fibrocystic breast disease
  • Uterine fibroids
  • Loss of sexual desire
  • Infertility
  • Autoimmune disorders
  • Urinary frequency
  • Dry eyes
  • Bloating / Fluid retention
  • Decreased mental sharpness
  • Polycystic ovaries
  • Inability to concentrate

These symptoms may sound common to some of you, but they are not normal! If you have any of them, it is essential to get your hormones back in balance as soon as you can. The symptoms will only get worse especially the weight gain. And who wants that? Natural progesterone créme has helped many women lose weight!

I hear you saying "What Has Happened to Me?" As your ovaries age, their function begins to decline. The progesterone hormone production falls dramatically between the ages of 35 and 50. Progesterone is the "feel good hormone" and you will definitely begin to not feel good! Your estrogen hormones now have undue influence on your body and you are Estrogen Dominant. Sadly, many women have experienced this state since puberty causing them to experience PMS symptoms which they took as "normal". Things are not hopeless! Estrogen Dominance can be stopped and reversed.

When Can Estrogen Dominance Take Over YOUR Life?

  • During peri-menopause or premenopause
  • When you are exposed to xenoestrogens, those environmental toxins and chemicals in the air and food which have an estrogenic effect on the body.
  • When you are taking estrogen replacement therapy or birth control pills that are high in estrogen.
  • When you have a hysterectomy and either your ovaries are removed or are no longer functioning properly. Did you know that even when the ovaries remain, they function sub-optimally after a hysterectomy?
  • When you have had a tubal ligation that affects the function of your ovaries.
  • When stress is a factor in a woman's life. Ha, ha, is there someone who does NOT have stress as a factor?

HOW DO I CORRECT MY ESTROGEN DOMINANCE?

It's not that difficult! Start now, before things get worse!

  • NUMBER 1 REMEDY: Use natural progesterone créme will usually restore hormonal balance and help a woman "feel like myself" again. Use just 25 days of the month for non-menstruating women and 12 days per month for menstruating women
  • Avoid external sources of estrogen (xenoestrogens from meats, dairy, plastic, petrochemicals, pesticides and herbicides
  • Use a supplement called DIM (diindolyl methane) or Indole-3-Carbinol which encourages your body to excrete excess estrogens. Good for men, too!

You can get back to normal! As I say, "Balance Your Hormones, Balance Your Life" Has your doctor placed you on synthetic hormones? Is your spouse, mate, child ready to move out? Are your friends worried about you? Do you have a hormone nightmare story? Let's share & get through this together!

PLEASE HELP ME :-( i am 28yrs old and i have had these symptoms my whole life. i have been on the hunt for something to make me feel better, but my 8yr married life is killing me, husband will not listen to me. he only listens to the doctors "psyciatrist" that said i am bipolar. to hear the words "oh so your cured now that you read that book" kills me and i want to give up and take the pills that they prescribed to me that make me sleep all day and have the worst side affects. i know i am not crazy, but its like 'climbing a mountain in a wheel chair'. i've just been enduring and that is slowly killing me too. i actually have a bottle of progesta-care that i bought a year ago sitting next to me. but i don't want to take it and then my husband thinks its the oxcarbazepin making me feel better. please help me, all the women in my family show signs of this. the internet is the only place i even heard of progesterone.

I'm in tears right now out of relief that there may be help for me :) Until four years ago I weighed 123 lbs, had 14.5 % body fat, wore a size 4, worked out regularly, felt & looked fabulous, especially for a grandmother! I've been from doctor to doctor with the exact symptoms you describe, with an unbelievable weight gain of 50 lbs & no energy from not sleeping & carrying around this extra weight. (I've never been heavy before) The last doctor who was supposed to be a specialist (endocrinologist) told me I'm just depressed & require antidepressants,for which he was delighted to give me samples. At 52 he never ordered blood work to test my hormone levels or mention it might be menopause. I declined the depression RX but did end up w/an anti-anxiety & sleep RX from my regular M.D. This doctor's P.A. wanted to send me to a special lab for a hormone panel but it was cost prohibitive at $400 not covered by insurance. I am so excited to hear that the progesterone may help. I'm getting some a.s.a.p. Thank you so much for this site & God Bless you!
