9 reports from women who tried Conjugated Estrogens
I gave Conjugated Estrogens a fair trial for my mood changes and anxiety. Some improvement in energy improved but the weight didn't shift persisted. Worth trying but manage your expectations.
I started Conjugated Estrogens after dealing with hot flashes and night sweats for months. By week 2 I noticed I slept better for the first time in months. At 10 weeks, I could function normally again. I wish I'd started sooner.
After reading about other women's experiences with Conjugated Estrogens, I decided to try it for my sleep problems and fatigue. I had more energy within the first month. the difference was remarkable by 10 weeks. I'm glad I tried it.
I started Conjugated Estrogens after dealing with multiple menopausal symptoms for months. By week 4 I noticed the frequency of symptoms reduced. At 8 weeks, the difference was remarkable. It's not perfect but it's made a real difference.
My friend who'd been through similar suggested Conjugated Estrogens for my menopausal symptoms. It took about 2 weeks to notice anything, but by week 10 I felt significantly better. I'd recommend discussing it with your GP.
