Not for me, for my Mother. She had a full hysdirectomy in 1980 when she had me and was always on Estrace .5mg and progesterone (unknown dosage). She stopped taking these 3 years ago because she felt she had passed menopause. Soon after, 3 months after, she hit a parked car and has been loony ever since. No doctor has ever been able to diagnose her with anything except "dementia of some type".
Anyways, I brought her to a new, younger doctor who said she MUST be on estrogen and wrote a script for 1.0mg. Now, after 2 weeks of being on it the difference is notable! A lot of her "dementia" symptoms have gone away and she seems to be returning somewhat, to normal.
My question:
Would having no Estrogen in your body cause symptoms of confusion, slight loss of memory, etc?

Read Suzanne Somer's book, "the Sexy Years".

It explains all that you want to know & more. It is available in most librarys.

I understand hormones affect every cell in our bodies. Our brain tries to correct symptoms but there are only low hormone levels to draw from. This is what a GYN told me last week.

BTW what brand of Estrace is your mother taking?

Being too low on estrogen can cause similar symptoms of having too much, including brain fog, etc.
