I’ve never had luck with hormones. EVER. Most birth controls gave me awful side effects, horrible PPD after both kids, and awful periods. So I was incredibly nervous to start a hormone willingly. But after struggling with the laundry list of perimenopause symptoms for 10 years I caved. I would say at least 80% of my symptoms are gone within 5 weeks. I’m going to stay hopeful because after all of the drs appts, multitude of supplements and countless other attempts at feeling human again, Oestra is the only thing that worked so far.

I was already using HRT but was not consistent taking pill form of P. This application allows me to ensure both E and P are taken. It’s amazing so little can work so well. I have referred my friends who were having issues taking P to investigate and try it.

Oestra is so much better than the generic estradiol cream. It is smoother, lighter, and best of all it has the benefit of both estradiol and progesterone. I feel more normal! It is the best, but I wish wish wish it was cheaper. Sigh. You can't win them all.

I do not like the newer packaging in my October shipment. The packaging in June was a better size and dispenser and lid. I would like more sustainable packaging, such as made from recycled materials, recyclable materials, natural materials, and cardboard shipping materials. The container is too wide, inconvenient for storing or travel. The lid has already cracked. It is the least sustainable packaging.

Fatigue has improved. Vaginal dryness improved. I also have controlled weight.
