Bioidentical hormones can be taken indefinitely, but it's essential to do so under the supervision of a healthcare professional.

Call your Ob/GYN and make an appointment. They may do a hormone level blood test and ask you a few questions. I have been on it 8 years and it is great ( don't care what the news accounts tell us.
