Many men take female hormones (even birth control pills), however these need to be prescribed.  In a survey done in 2000, the Ortho Novum people were astounded to find that nearly 7 percent of their sales were to men, and another 5 percent to women to were buying them for men.  Implants will give you boobs, but only hormones will give you the more feminine attributes you are looking for -- decreased facial hair, changes in voice timbre.  Hopefully one of the other respondants to your question can link you up with a transgender-type site or chat room where you can get more info on people's first hand experiences using hormones.  As for a non-prescription product that will help develop male breasts, honey child, if there was such a thing, every woman in the world would know about it!

Androgen-excess syndrome has several major features:\n*seborrhea (a form of skin inflammation which has no known cause)\n*acne\n*hirsutism\n*obesity\n*hair loss (alopecia)\n*velvety, light-brown-to-black, markings usually on the neck, under the arms or in the groin, associated with high insulin levels (acanthosis nigricans).\n\nWhether a woman is hirsute often is difficult to judge because hair growth varies among individual women and across ethnic groups. What is considered hirsutism in one culture may be considered typical in another. For example, women from the Mediterranean and the Indian subcontinent have more facial and body hair than do women from East Asia, sub-Saharan Africa, and northern Europe.\n\nYou can help your body oppose androgen dominance in a number of ways.\n\nProgesterone is the one hormone in a woman's body that modulates other hormones helping to restore balance. It's certainly proving to be a major player in the successful treatment of PCOS. Progesterone supplementation might, therefore, be a good starting point.\n\nI would certainly suggest women pay particular attention to diet and nutrition, avoid all refined carbohydrates and sugars, introduce a premium phytoestrogen-vitamin-mineral formulation, incorporate a essential fatty acid supplement, get plenty of exercise, drink lots of filtered water, reduce weight (if need be), learn to manage your stress levels, and rest up.\n\nAnd source yourself a healthcare professional who's familiar with salivary hormone profiles and prescribing human-identical hormone replacement therapy.

I think that if a woman stops ovulating there would be no more menstruation, and estrogen levels change, to me this is part of a biological clock in women which indicates the conceiving period is over and pregnancy at a late age is risky.\nFortunately there are supplements that can be taken for the secondary effects such as hot flashes like black cohosh and flax hull lignans. Lignans are a type of plant chemical that can simulate and help balance human hormones such estrogen.

Before starting any supplements or HRT, I would try:\nEliminate artificial sweeteners (diet soda included!)\nIncrease plain water intake\nEliminate processed foods (lunch meat, cheeses etc..)\nTake a good multi-vitamin daily\nTry herbal tea geared towards women's health\nAs far as an exercise program goes, start small! Choose a parking spot furthest away from the store/work, and take the stairs instead of elevators. Baby steps will keep you from being too overwhelmed by all the changes. Good luck!

With hormone replacement you should still be able to get pregnant.\n\nYour thyroid gland plays a part along with many of your other endocrine system glands to regulate certain body functions.  Without it you may have to take a replacement hormone to helpregulate the other parts of your endocrine system but the loss of your thyroid should not make you totally incapable of becoming pregnant.  It may affect other organs which could affect your ability to become pregnant -due to the lack of the hormones that the thyroid produces- but you should still be able to concieve.  You should be asking your doctor this question and not Yahoo!

The male hormone testosterone.  Give a woman male hormones (via steroids), she'll begin to grow more hair, muscles, and have a deeper voice.  Give a man female hormones (such as estrogen) and he'll grow "breasts" and have a higher voice.

No my mother went through the change of life when she was in her late 30's.  She ended up having a hysterectomy at 38.  There isn't a set time for your body to go through this.  Every woman is different.  Make sure you get some meds so your hormones will get stabilized properly.  It also helps with bone density lose and with mood swings.\nHope this helps.

Yes, most hormones canbe tested with simple blood tests.  I am a tech and perform thyroid tests pretty much daily.  Female hormones that are associated with fertility and menopause such as follicle stimulating hormone, leutenizing hormaone and prolactin are tested regularly.  Otheres such as testosterone, estrogen, insulin and the adrenal hormones are also tested fairly often. In your case, it would appear that the thyroid testing would be a good place to start.  See your doctor and see what he recommends.

I would say consult the advice of your gynecologist before going off of your hormone replacement. But sometimes the cons outweigh the pros of taking the hormone therapy so its really up to you to do the research on whether or not you want to go off of it. I really think 29 is young for a hysterectomy though, was it done for cancer risks?If so I would definitely go off of it.

I started addressing the peri-menapausal time with Progesterone cream, which really helped regulate my cycles and make them more manageable.  Then a friend of mine introduced me to the notion of Bioidentical Hormone Replacement Therapy, first by Suzanne Sommers's book The Sexy Years (I would never have picked it up on my own...) and then other publications. My gynecologist was supportive.  Basically you have a blood test and use hormone creams or pills to adjust your specific levels of each hormone to optimum.  Not a one-size-fits-all, synthetic medication.  Changed my life and made the changing years not only bearable but better than ever!

Without taking a form of hormonal birth control,only time will tell. Gaining weight isn't a healthy option. Maybe try a push up bra instead.

First, I'm really sorry for what you're going through.  It sounds like you might be in need of an HRT formulation to replace some of the hormones.  Joint/muscle pains, etc. can come about from estrogen depletion, even when it is still produced in small amounts in our adipose tissue.  It may take several different attempts/dosages/formulations to find the right one for you.  Also, calcium is important post-hyst. and if necessary, get tested (DEXA scan) for bone mineral density levels and take Rx meds as needed if it shows there is a problem.  You can also get a second opinion from your gen. practitioner to determine if other diagnostic function tests should be run to r/o other concerns and conditions.  I feel your pain and frustration; hysterectomy is not as easy as the general public seems to think it is and people really need to be disabused of that notion.  If your current docs won't listen - find some that will.  Help is out there.  Hang in there and feel better.
