Dr. Bernard Seif answered

Specializes in Clinical Psychology

Very low energy: Need to be assessed by your doctor. The multivitamin you take is not the root cause. I see that you have very low estrogen. Please see you doc who may check your other hormones and help[p you to bring them back into balance. See Suzanne Somers book on natural hormone replacement but be guided by doc. Peace and good health.
