Is anyone already taking Livial (Tibilone) for HRT? My understanding is that it is available in Europe, but not yet in the US or Canada. If you are taking it, I would be curious to know how it is working for you. Does anyone know when it will be available in the USA, or if there is a way to get it from outside of the USA.Thanks, Cindy

I've been on Livial for nearly 4 weeks now for SEVERE 24/7 hot flash sweats. So horrible I've wished I could quit my physically intensive job and at times have actually considered shooting myself! (no I'm not depressed). It takes up to 3 months to get the full benefit. The only difference I've noticed so far is that my hotflash/sweats last 5-10 min. instead of 20-45 minutes. I sure am hoping it works for me as I'm at the end of my rope and I've tried EVERYTHING possible like a ginuea pig!!! I am estrogen-dominant. I'm in the USA but get it from Europe.

Thanks catbird. I hope this turns out to be the answer for you. I understand totally because today I seem to be having one hot flash after another and it is no fun.
