Hi Everyone,

I had to stop my estrogen because I'm 58 and still have a uters and cannot tolerate progesterone. It just isn't worth trying to use it. I have tried all modes of delivery, strengths, etc. So I'm off estrogen but have no libido or sensationyou know where. Has anyone done well using estestorone only or is there something else to try? I'm on 1.25 mg. test. 2x per day and have a little jar of gel which I'm supposed to usea entil peasize amount applied directly to appropriate area. I am concerned with enlargement of nether parts also, so Ineed some advice and information on this. I tried Zystra and one other non-hormonal therapy, which didn't work. Also, I tried Maca but had an adverse reaction to it. Can you use Estrace cream if you still have your uterus and don't take progesterone?

Please try to answer each question separetely.


Thanks so much.

If you have an uterus, the doctors say you need some form of progesterone. Also, I wouldn't recommend using testosterone if you aren't using estrogen - that could have masculining affects!

It's possible that you're just trying too many things and unduly stressing over a variety of symptoms. I understand that you're concerned about loss of libido, but is this more of a concern to you or to your husband?
