Halifax Nova Scotian; menopause advocate; lover of cats, health sciences, politics. Overall, I'm not that important.
This can only come from someone who's never had menstrual cramps before---and who's an idiot. I'm convinced his wife hates him.

Lol. Alien Earth is great just like most (if not all) of Noah Holly's stuff. And speaking of Timothy Olyphant, have you seen Soderbergh's Full Circle? He's in that and not a lawman or cowboy. It's a good miniseries (IMO).

I would have felt better about the Dems having caved if they had a stipulation that no one from the House and Senate can be paid during a shut down. Is anyone proposing this?

Yeah. Dr Louise Nelson, Menopause specialist has them and talks about this a lot. That's how I learned about fluctuations in hormones affecting migraines negatively.

Is it difficult to get in some provinces? I was signed up to get it in NS at my apartment building. Downtown Loblaw does this every year for our buildings. But it's been postponed this year due to not enough supply.

I know it's used to stabilize the changes in hormones, which provides relief for some women actually. I also think some women absorb it very quickly transdermally which I did, so I have to take smaller amounts more frequently but I had bladder problems with menopause, not migraines.

Have they done blood clot studies on transdermal? I was under the impression the clotting factors are in the liver which happens from oral estrogen, like those also in contraception which is not even biologically identical. The WHI was a disaster for women's health in my opinion.

MPA, I meant.

The interpretation of the WHI was ridiculous, overblown, and incorrect. It's about time these warning labels come off. In fact, if anything, the warnings should have been placed on the synthetic progestin MDA; not the oral estrogen CEE, which many don't even take anymore.

I hate these things. Noise polluters, all of them.

Most of the Dem leadership will vote against it. Is that right? If so, why are people upset with the Dem leadership? Am I missing something?
