Thanks diane- Yeah- I never really investigated hormones before. It was actually at age 15 when my symptoms began- but nothing truly starting to threaten my quality of life until I was 19 and now Im 28. It WAS menopause I was going thru- I guess its called premature ovarian failure. All the gynies I wet to just put me on birth control so Id get a cycle. It never went futher than that. I thought it was numerous mental things but I refused anti-deppresants. I always just tried using diet and excersise to alleeve my symptoms until 4 years ago when that wasnt enough and I was so fatigued, Depressed and suicidal. I went to intensive therapy, eating disorder rehab, caused a lot of pain to my friends and family, lost my career. it wasnt until this past year that I was introduced to a holistic doctor who took great intrest into my situation and seemed to understand and offer an alternative solution to anti-deppresants. It was actually really nice to see real solid results on paper as to why I may have had such a difficult decade. Although the therapy and rehab helped- it never seemed to get at the root issue of the cause of such pain. the only thing that seems to really resonate with me is that hormones could be a key factor in to what I have been experiencing. The wiley protocol is a bit scary to me but since I have little to no hormones in my body and Im still in my 20's it seems the best choice. Its also bio-identical and not synthetic which eases me too. I cant honestly say Im doing tremendously well on this protocol, however Ive just begun my third month and Im soo depleted in my hormones, itll be at least 6 months before im balanced. Just the fact that there is a smidge of hope that I COULD get better- is enough for me- so Im gonna stick to it for a while and I hope Im one of those cases that has nothing but good things to say about it.
