I would likely be dead without the Wiley protocol. When I was 57, I had a total hysterectomy and oophorectomy for uterine cancer. I was still having periods at that age. I couldn't talk the surgeon into not taking the ovaries which produce a lot of our hormones, even if they looked OK and didn't appear to be affected by the cancer. I had excellent surgeons and my body, per se, recovered from the surgery in terms of shape and moving around. However, by the time 9 months had passed I was falling into suicidal depressions, each one worse than the previous one, and I knew at some point I would not come back. In complete hysterical desperation, I called UCLA and was connected to a fantastic patient advocate who got me an appt. with an OBGYN. He got me on some estrogen, but I never tolerate the birth control pills (fake estrogen) and.. to make a long story short, I was finally referred to Dr. Taguchi at Sansum, and I got on the Wilely. I have to tell you- the estrogen first saved my life. The depressions went away. But with the whole protocol, acne I'd had since age 13 disappeared in a couple weeks!! The testosterone enabled me to start workiing out at the gym again. Without it, I could barely lift my legs and I am a field biologist. I have always been an active person! Testosterone is what puts the "spring" in your step!!! How come doctors don't tell us these things!!!!

I have been on it now for 16 or 17 years? therebouts. A couple years ago they changed something in the fomulation- and its not working quite as well as it did, and am researching these issues. But, no doubt exists in my mind, without WP, I would not be here anymore. I was hoping to find more about the WP, but there doesn't seem to be much about it online.

Anyway, I probably wouldn't take it just to keep looking young (my mom is 100+, so thats already in my genes). And I don't look as old as I am, as I always have been active, but if I had (and I did) physiological challenges because of the abrupt removal of several of my body organs, I would not hesitate to take it to normalize bodily functions.

BtW- my cancer was "caught" Stage 1, Grade 1. My internist noted she had never seen it caught so soon. Pay attention to your bodies!! I called my ObGYN one day as I asked him, how does one determine the difference between menopausal symtoms and cancer, as their symotoms are essentially the same in early stages. He said- only way is to look and test. So we did- and I was so lucky to catch it very early!! Listen to your body!! He was taken by surprise as during the exam, he saw nothing out of the ordinary!!
