Greta,
There are many estrogen replacements for Premarin. Why are you so
adamant about taking something made from horse urine that is not natural
to your body? You wold be better advised to switch to a topical estrogen
(patch) and natural progesterone cream to balance the estrogen. The
patches generally use a natural (bio-identical) estrogen which is less
likely to cause side effects and is easier for your body to control. Dr.
John Lee has a really good book on menopause that explains all about
these various hormones and how they work in our bodies. You might feel
more comfortable making this decision with a little more knowledge under
your belt. His website is http://www.johnleemd.com and his books are also
available at many health food and book stores. Take care and remember,
knowledge is power!
