What is the best way to cope with anxiety if you are going through perimenopause, and will remifemin help?

As we age, our estrogen levels drop 40 to 60% of what they once were. However, progesterone levels drop to zero! Having a higher level of estrogen than progesterone is called Estrogen Dominance.

Estrogen dominance is likely the source of your anxiety and depression. If you take remifemin, you will be adding MORE estrogen, probably making your anxiety worse. Only about 3% of women walking on this earth need estrogen replacement!

Look into natural progesterone. It's the body's own "anti-estrogen" and will balance out the excess estrogen!

Remifemin contains black cohosh, which has been shown to cause liver damage, and to promote (not cause) cancer growth.
