I have been taking Estrace cream. I read that you should take progesterone with it if you have a uterus. However, my pharmacist said if you are older then you need not take it. I am confused. I started taking a progesterone pill (prometrium, not sure how to spell it) and I could not stand the side effects so I stopped. I am now just taking the smallest amount of Estrace that Is needed for my symtoms. I understand that there is also a progesterone patch that is also bioidentical, but do not know if I need it.
Please advise.
thank you,
Debbie
