Thanks for your responses.

The yam cream sounds interesting, I'll have to look that up. I have looked into bio-identical hormone replacement which is a natural plant based therapy. I know a few people who speak very highly of it. Luckily I live within blocks of a compound pharmacy who can do it too. The drawback though is that the preliminary testing is very expensive. Every time I make a plan to get started it seems that the house or one of the pets needs that money. I hope to soon though. I need to do something because I am sure getting tired of this and it really makes my anxiety barely manageable.
