I'm with ya, KTeach! 49 years old and estrogen swings like a teenager. I'm doing bioidentical hormones - seems to work better for me. Did the patch for awhile too, it was OK but I like this better.

Riding is my saving grace - I can work out all my frustrations so that I don't take them out on others! I don't know how women who don't exercise make it through this "wonderful change of life" (NOT!). I never even had zits as a teenager! Now, as Molly Ivans says, I have zits in my wrinkles!
