GENERAL
I am a woman who is 52 years of age and in the middle of menopause. I have used Arbonne's Prolief (progesterone cream)and Phyto Prolief (phyto estrogens and progesterone) for 1.5 years with good relief from hot flashes and night sweats. I am very happy with this natural treatment of my menopausal symptoms and not at all interested in using traditional hormone replacement therapies such as Premarin and Prempro that puts me and other women at risk for breast cancer, stroke, heart attack, etc. I am also a public health nurse of 35 years and urge you to keep the drug companies and FDA out of women's way in using bio-identical hormones for health and wellness. Please DO NOT support the Wyeth Petition. Please support a woman's right to use safe and effective natural treatments using bio-identical hormones.

Sincerely

Tammy Hickman, BSN, CPNP
