Is anyone taking 'Livial' HRT??


Question:
I have just had a hysterectomy and have to take Livial. I think it is making my joints ache!! Is this just a side effect or should I stop taking it?

Answers:
Joint pain is in Miriam Brazel's list. Do you have any of the other symptoms (other problems) are on Miriam Brazel's list. This is the link to my web page regarding hormone tests and Miriam Brazel's page

1 do an on line hormone test http://www.johnleemd.com/store/resource_...
2 do an appropriate saliva test and obtain results
3 get the results & discuss with a NPIS doctor or educate your GP/MD

Livial® (tibolone) is a first choice treatment for the relief of climacteric symptoms and prevention of osteoporosis in postmenopausal women as it regulates the estrogenic activity in a tissue-selective way. This results in desired estrogenic effects in tissues like the brain, bone and vagina, while avoiding the undesired estrogenic effects on the endometrium and the breast.

Our Network is swamped weekly by letters from women seeking a no-nonsense explanation as to why progesterone replacement therapy is relevant following a hysterectomy. A more indepth exploration of the real facts about hysterectomy, associated risks, deciding factors, and the need to replace your missing hormones are discussed in detail in our Resource Library. But let's briefly clear up some points:

Do a search for “natural progesterone hysterectomy” and you will find other pages

You may find something in them to confirm I am pointing you in the right direction.

The menopause book may provide helpful background information but only when you have had a saliva test can you decide what your next move is. I hope I have started you on the path to making that decision.

When your hormones are balanced the joint pain will disappear and your body will be happier and you'll be smiling
You should consult your surgeon and get the prescription changed. E advice can be dangerous.
