Yes, we should start a new thread. I'll be crazy busy today so won't be able to get to it yet. I'm still learning too. I have not heard of the phrase bioemetric with regard to BHRT. What is that...very interested.

I have thought long and hard about the other methods. The doctor who's work I'm very fond of, Uzzi Reiss, endorses continous and points to pregnancy as an example of how continuos hormones are natural for the body. He points out that women who have many babies and don't cycle due to breast feeding and pregnancies are often healthier. The jury is still out on that for me.

Suzanne Somer's insists rythmic is the best way to do it. She thinks simply cycling her hormones eg Dr Johnathan Wright's protocol, never really opened up her progesterone and estradiol receptors and she ended up with a proliferated uterus - hysterectomy. (personally, I think vaginal progesterone could have remedied this) Still...rythmic (incrementally increasing doses of hormones to mimic a real cycle) is the way young women naturally cycle, so something to consider.

Lunar - it's amazing to think all women used to cycle with the moon according to historical literature - (well, I read that). Our modern day life does not let us be very in tune with the wane and pull of nature.

Which way do you use your hormones? If you want to start the thread... please do and share what info you have. I'll chime in.
