DEAR SIR/MADAM

WHEN ESTRADIOL TAKEN FOR A LONG TIME CAUSES NIGHT SWEATS IN 18 PERCENT OF PATIENTS. OTHER COMMONLY ENCOUNTERED SIDE EFFECTS OF ESTRADIOL ARE DEPRESSION, RHEUMATOID ARTHRITIS, AND HIGH BLOOD PRESSURE.
OF COURSE YOU ARE SUITABLE FOR THIS HORMONE AS HORMONAL REPLACEMENT THERAPY IS INDICATED IN POST HYSTERECTOMY PATIENTS. TO EASE OF THE SYMPTOMS I RECOMMEND THE FOLLOWING.

I RECOMMEND YOU TO START ON ORAL CALCIUM WITH VITAMIN D3. I THINK IT MAY HELP YOU A LOT AND MICRONISED ESTROGEN AND PROGESTERONE THERAPY.
