Bioidentical Hormone Replacement Therapy

menopause medication?

I had a full radical hysterectomy 6 months ago and the doctor has not given me any medication for hormone replacement therapy. I should add that I had uterine cancer and am only 34 years old. He said that he could not prescribe me estrogen because of having cancer, something about the chances for repeat cancer if I do take it. I’m just looking for something over the counter that I might be able to use to help with the symptoms of menopause. He wanted to put me on an anti depressant and I don’t want to go that route, I’m not depressed, I’m just HOT, lol. Any suggestions?

I am going through menopause as we speak. I cannot take snythetic hormones either cause I have other risk factors. I didn’t want to go on anti-depressants either but after having really bad mood swings, and you will get them, I started taking them.
I don’t regret it for a minute. You have a good doctor. I tried the OTC stuff but it didn’t help.
