Use lubrication: A healthy estrogen level in menopause is now thought to be your own body's natural level. If you have hot flashes or other bothersome symptoms of peri-menopause, you may want to supplement estrogen with progesterone to prevent uterine cancer for a few years, less than 5 seems to be the current thinking. I still think the jury is out on hormone replacement therapy. Osphena may not be safer? KY
