Advanced Estro-Life Balancing Skin Cream for Women | Cosmetic Skin Cream with Estriol, Wild Yam, Black Cohosh, Vitamin A, Black Currant Oil & Manganese | Paraben-Free | 80 Applications | 4oz Pump

Turning 47 was my time, irritability/hair loss/weight gain/ belly fat/ bloating/weakening SKIN ELASTICITY was immediately apparent!! Luckily no hot flashes or sleep disturbances. After reading all the reviews, I decided to take a leap of faith (especially with all the positive data on HRT and estriol use for anti-aging skin benefits. Well folks, the verdict is in!! Been using it for 6 weeks, a pea-sized amount all over face, eyelids, and neck twice a day and WOW, WOW, WOW. The cream is not only moisturizing but I'm delighted to report that my skin has REVERTED to pre-47 stages. It's soft, plump, and I visually can see that the elasticity has returned. It's nothing short of a miracle!! We know that consistency is key, so I've also slowly added Retin-A twice a WEEK as this is actually really irritating and the purge is real. Estro-Life is truly life changing and I'm excited about my face and skin again. There's hope for us women going through this life stage!! Now, I can embrace aging gracefully but my skin doesn't have to catch up so soon! Win!!

I must say, first of all, that I've only been using the estriol cream and progesterone cream for a few days, but have already experienced some very positive results. I apply the estriol cream in the morning after shower and the progesterone cream before bedtime. I also love the estriol cream as a facial moisturizer. I am 38 years young, and had a full abdominal hysterectomy (ovaries removed) about nine months ago, due to severe endometriosis & ovarian cysts. My doctor told me that my insides looked as if a bomb had gone off, very nasty & painful. After my hysterectomy, physically I felt much better, but emotionally, I have felt terrible. I have had depression, major anxiety, moodswings, hot flashes, trouble sleeping, and no sex drive whatsoever. The thought of living the rest of my life feeling this way, terrifies me. I did try premarin and estroven, with no positive results. I began looking into bioidentical hrt's, and came across all the great reviews for smokey mountain, and with nothing to lose, decided to purchase it. I did have a few concerns, so I emailed the company, and they were so courteous & promt, to get back to me, and I recieved the product very quickly. Since starting the product only a few days ago, I already notice that my skin is looking so much better, I have been sleeping through the night, no hot flashes at all, and in general I feel much calmer. I am so looking forward to things to come, with such positive results already. I do not usually write reviews on products that I purchase, but wanted to put some helpful words out there to others, who are experiencing these symptoms and positive feedback, because these products are the real deal and can hopefully help you too. Thank you Amazon for carrying these products and to Smokey Mountain for making such wonderful products!

I was very skeptical at first and a bit apprehensive with that, but my Physician’s Assistant urged me to give an bioidentical estrogen cream from Amazon a try. She also told me to use a bioidentical progesterone cream, and to use DHEA as well. I came home and did further research as my PA urged me to and I waded through all the different options on Amazon which took several days for me to settle on since I was also doing research on my situation and what I needed. I decided to go with Smokey Mountain on the bioidentical Advanced formula Estro-Life and Progesto-Life creams. Decided to take an oral Micronozed DHEA 25 mg. 1x Daily from Douglas Laboratories. Most studies say 50 mg. Is better but I am going to just work up to that to avoid any side effects which some report. So far, so good. Also taking Pregnenalone 50mg. Micronized Lipid Matrix by Allergy Research Group. Both DHEA and Pregnenelone are products of cholesterol which your body uses to make hormones. Study up more on that and talk to doctors who really care and guide you properly and honestly. I am on a high fat ketogenic diet and pretty meat heavy, but recently I started just losing my appetite. I do have some newly diagnosed (over the last 3-4 years new,) thyroid Disease, other autoimmune issues and had early hysterectomy in my early 30’s because of severe, severe endometriosis. So, having said that my issues are pretty rotten, but if you’re having similar issues, just read on and maybe some of what I have to say here will help. Just really really research well and like I say, talk to a good doctor if you can find one. I’m just a sick, regular Jane with no fancy doctors or stinkin’ of money. Was a former healthcare person till my illnesses ruined everything in my life. Just trying to research ways to claw my way out of this mire as best I can. Little by little, gaining a few inches of ground. Changing my diet did change up the game so do try it. It helps the other things you do to work better and hopefully get you going on the path to more natural ways of taking care of yourselves, which really is the best. Don’t say you’re too old to care. You’re never too anything to care. Anyhoo, I was feeling real bad and so angry and agitated for several months and when my Dr. decided to do labs on my hormones, we found out I had nothing BUT testosterone. Lab value was 16 which actually isn’t ridiculous for a post menopausal woman. But I had zero estrogen and progesterones to make me a sane person, so I was raging and that was not normal for me at all. Glad I went to the doctor with it because I really felt bad about being constantly snappy and snippy and feeling out of control. So, I tried the Smokey Mountain products without the DHEA and Pregnenalone at first because the order on those took about a week more than I wanted, but I did notice the creams from Smokey Mountain seemed to be helping me out and pretty quickly. Like from the first few doses. I felt a bit calmer and I was able to go to sleep easier and sleep a bit more soundly after the first 3 nights of treatment. I didn’t even auto-subscribe because I wanted to make sure it would work at least good enough to make me feel more normal than I was. After a month of doing all this, I feel a ton better. I was worried about it and I am not going to lie… I was really worried about some of the reviews here and scared to death I was going to be wasting my money. And I don’t know what the situations are for those women as to why it didn’t work for them. It can be user error or a whole litany of other reasons they may not even be aware of, but it is helping me. I don’t appear to be having any mild or severe adverse side effects that I’m acutely aware of at this time from these Smokey Mountain products. If you’re suffering or find you are in a similar fix with other health conditions like me, I will tell you the same thing my PA told me, at least give it a try to see if it may help you and give you even just a little bit more relief till you can do something better because you may be surprised like me. I was on only a small dose of prescription Estrodiol, but it wasn’t really enough to help me and my Gyn didn’t want to increase my dose and I was still majorly suffering with so many symptoms due to being in a post menopausal state. So I figured why take it if I can’t have the full range of hormones to help balance me out when much research suggests your whole body is going through total havoc because you no longer can produce all these hormones in the first place? There are studies that show even post menopausal women can benefit from the full range of hormone treatment and be balanced at ANY age whether you still have your ovaries or not or still have a uterus or not. You still need them because you’re still a female and you benefit from a little if everything. Makes sense to me. Everything started going wrong with me after I got my complete hysterectomy. It really affects you on multiple systemic levels. After I did my research I was really shocked about all the things that go wrong with your body when you can’t produce enough or can’t make these hormones. After going through all of this, I see how important hormone optimization is. So, definately look into this stuff seriously. I will have labs drawn in another 2 or 3 weeks to see how the combined treatments are actually helping or not. Could wind up that I may have to see an endocrinologist to straighten me out proper, but for now, these creams do appear to help in a meaningful way. Good luck with your research and make a goal to get balanced.
