I have premature ovarian failure and took estradiol for  months and it has made me crazy depressed, along with many other symptoms, it has ruined my life.  You are not alone!  It changed my brain chemisty, now doctors and family think I am crazy, when before I was the calmest, rock of a person you could find.  I say again, you are not alone, hang in there and search for answers!

Investigate Myimin for hormones.  Why do you suffer from anxiety and depression?  Do you know it is caused from a chemical imbalance?....MSG causes chemical imbalances in the brain and is in 60% of our foods.  Check the 13 names for MSG.  Go to health food store for pH test strips and see if your body is acidic.  Start knowing all the chemicals you are eating.
