Est Estrgn Methtest .625/1.25 Mg (Page 2)

I am a 42 yr old woman and had a complete hysterectomy in October 2008. Within 1 year of my surgery, I began experiencing extreme hair loss. This November, my doctor prescribed EST ESTRN METHTEST .625/1.25 mg (in addition to the ESTRADIOL .5mg that I was already taking) to help reduce the hair loss. I was wondering if this medication is used for this purpose (as well as it's other benefits)? My mother is a breast cancer survivor (2009) & I am concerned about increasing my chances, by taking all these medications. Is it safe, or should I just accept my balding?

My doctor retired and went to 3 different doctors and they would not fill my Premarin .625, my original doctor told me I would have to take it the rest of my life. I felt wonderful for 25 years on it. well the last doctor I told him I can't go thru withdrawals and I thought I was going to go crazy, hair fell out, skin got real thin, age spots, and no libido at all. the doctors don't care, they just say no and I literally beg them. so I told the last one if I can't get it here I was going to fill prescriptions from Canada. He gave me .03 which was not enough so I mail order mine and I am back to my old self again. I feel so good and my libido has been Unbelievable just like before so I will continue to take it. my skin looks great no more wrinkles and my skin got thicker. I'm 69 years old and I refuse to spend my last years miserable. I'm not afraid of the side effects. all medicines have more side effects than premarin and I could die from some of those but the doctors don't care. Not to be mean but I can't wait till their wives go thru it. I bet they will give it to them. my fiancé was going to leave me because of the problems I had. I do believe a lot of marriages break up because of doctors who don't have a clue what it's like. I wish they could go thru it for a year and I'm sure they might have more compassion. this my story and it might not be for you but I do feel for all women whose doctors won't help them.

My insurance does not pay for it either... I get a 3 month supply at Walmart for $55.00 using an RX Savings Card... It's well worth it!!!

I have been taking this drug for six years. It has prevented the symptoms of bone loss, GI disorders, sleep loss, muscle loss and weight gain you get when your body has too much estrogen.

I went off of the pills two years ago but would like to resume due to a low libido and hot flashes at night. I have some expired pills from 2016 to get started. Is this ok?
