Q:  I have tried coming off HRT before but have suffered serious withdrawal symptoms, so have gone straight back onto it.  I know I need to get off this drug.  Please help!

Sally's Comment:  Always come off drugs slowly.  Your body has become used to them and you could have withdrawal effects if you come off the HRT too quickly.
I suggest you immediately start using Naturone and then wean yourself off HRT over 3 - 6 months, whichever is best for you.  Some people can come off fairly quickly without having withdrawal symptoms, others need longer.  On a pill, it is easy , as you would miss every other day for the first month, miss 2 days between dose in the second month. miss 3 days in the third month etc. With the patch, you would cut a quarter out of the patch used in the first month. a half off the second month, 3/4 the 3rd month etc.  The implant you just never take another one, but may use more Naturone for those months until you feel totally balanced.

Just would like to let you know that I was told about Naturone by my mother-in-law, and I have been on Naturone for three months now and I am thrilled at the results! I have been a migraine sufferer since I started puberty and this was always put down to riding accidents, which I must admit I had plenty of. However after years, years and years of visting chiropractors, doctors, homeopathic doctors etc, and having the frustration of not knowing the cause of these migraines and only having the comfort of ingesting bottles and bottles of migraine tables and having dozens of pethadine jabs to combat the pain; I am thrilled, that at last I now seem to be getting on top of this with this progesterone.
So I really feel indebted to you for approaching my mother-in-law in the bank that day! I am so excited about this alternative to HRT as well and also look forward to my eventual menopause instead of the dread most women view it in these modern times.
I have started to tell my friends about it should any of them like to try this therapy.
Take care. God bless.
Best wishes.

I attended your lecture in Johannesburg on the 19th March. Previously I had been on HRT for 13 years (I am 63 years old). About two weeks before your lecture I had stopped the HRT without any tapering and was experiencing panic attacks and hot flushes etc. I felt the benefit of Naturone almost immediately but would be grateful if you could help me with some queries:-

 Hi Sally
I wrote to you from Botswana last year as I was about to start Naturone. It has helped tremendously migraines are a thing of the past and my periods are not nearly so heavy. It also helped a lot with insomnia. Of late I feel that things are changing again in my body- towards the end of my cycle last month the insomnia went wild again, I got hold of Ingrid and she got hold of Helen and both said to add an extra spoon would be ok for a short while, I did and it really helped. 10 days into my new cycle thing have gone pear shaped again so have added an extra spoon and things are calming down slowly.
I am 42 and have had just about all the symptoms you talk about on the website in varying degrees over the  years - I find doctors really unhelpful and unwilling to try and understand that I listen to my body and that things have been changing gradually for the last 4 years. They just don't seem to understand this peri-menopause idea!!!.
I am unwilling to pursue the sleeping problem with the doctor as prescription sleeping tablets and anti-depressants make the situation worse and I certainly am not prepared to go the HRT rote, I have several friends who have come badly unglued that way. Can I continue to adjust the cream when the peri menopausal symtoms just aren't manageable on 2 spoons and then readjust when it calms down again ?
Thanks so much

NATURONE has helped me so very much.
As I told you Shirley got me started. She said to me last year, "Susan, I think what you need is natural progesterone cream".
To cut a long story short, I had decided I would not be going the HRT route and although I am so glad I made this decision, it has been a difficult one, since the effects of menopause, like the hot flushes and moods swings have been awful.
Once I began using the natural Progesterone cream and getting used to the amount I needed to balance my system, my skin has improved, my energy levels better, mood swings have disappeared, my weight seems more balanced and most of all the hot flushes have lessened and almost down to nothing now.
So I am keen to assist others who are battling with various problems also and would like to become a promoter of your product.
Thank you once again
Sincerely
Susan Huntingford
