I have been on the Wiley protocol for 4 months. I have had a very positive experience. I work for a practice who's doctor prescribes the Wiley protocol. We have had no instances of women wanting to go off, no instances of women going to the emergency room and no instances of horrendous side effects being reported. Minor transient side effects are normal in the first few months and are generally handled by adjusting the dose or spreading the dose out to 4x a day instead of 2x. I could sleep better after only 3 days on the protocol. I have had no weight gain since starting. Static dosing of hormones is not natural for the body! A woman's body doesn't make progesterone until the second half of her cycle. Why would you give progesterone in the same dose all month long? It doesn't make sense. Same as estradiol. Your natural cycle starts out low, peaks on day 12 and falls back down the last 14 days of the cycle (for a normal 28 day cycle). Why would you give the same static dose of estradiol all month long. I say do your research and be mindful of anonymous posters of information. There are people who spread bad information being paid by pharmaceutical companies, on websites such as your own. They have their agenda and that is to make sure a great bhrt program does not cut into their profits. Wiley makes sense. Most days on the wiley protocol are less than standard of care static dosing. Only the peak days and immediately surrounding days are higher than standard of care static dosing.
