Some women aren’t aware that Premarin and Prempro may cause an increase in blood pressure; elevation of CRP (C-Reactive Protein) – marker in blood work that determines systemic inflammation, which can cause serious heart problems, e.g. stroke. Also may cause breast cancer and/or blood clots.

One woman I know just used a small amount premarin cream and started vomiting everyday, not realizing that the cream was the cause. She thought she had a virus.

The alternatives to the aforementioned are natural progesterone cream by Life-flo or Emerita (paraben free), along with Natural Factor’s EstroSense for hormone balance support.

Another great product to use is Shatavari or as mentioned in my blog entitled Asparagus.

Please discuss all your options with your gynecologist and have the necessary blood tests first.

The following is a testimonial from a woman who used Life-flo progesterone:

From Ohio
This product absolutely saved me. I’m just 43, so I assume it’s perimenopause, but I began suddenly having horrific night sweats and hot flashes throughout the day. I was getting little sleep as I was awakened every night tossing and turning to cool off several times a night. After suffering through them for several weeks, I finally researched what I could do to help. This cream was a true life saver for me. It put a complete stop to my uncomfortable night sweats and hot flashes after just one day! No kidding! I applied it in the morning and that very night, I slept for the first time in weeks without awakening. It was incredible. I could not believe how quickly and effectively it worked for me. If you’re suffering from hot flashes and you haven’t tried a progesterone cream yet…. this one works!! Maybe they all do..I don’t know, but I do KNOW this one does!
