Hi Gail, I started the Wiley at age 60. I had to go up to E5 to feel good, but then I gained weight in my middle. I found out that I had adrenal fatigue, so i started taking supplements for that, and also raise my thyroid medicine. When estrogen goes up, thyroid goes down. Things are starting to click now. The older you are, the more depleted you are and the longer it takes to figure and balance everything. It has taken like 4 years to get to this point. I was on static Bioidentical hormones before and ended up with a fibroid which forced me into a hysterectomy. So what ever form you do on bioidentical hormones, be sure to get blood test done at least 1 time a year to see if you are in estrogen dominance. When I was on static hormones, my sex hormones were never tested which resulted in a fibroid.
