Q: my mother-in-law is in her 70's. She has been on hormone therapy for 30 years. Within the last 5 years she has become extremely moody and cranky. She is driving her family away. This past week with family has been a nightmare. I think she needs to see her doctor and had her therapy checked but she won't listen to anybody. Is there any articles I can send her to read so that she might see herself in them and see her doctor for a checkup and some changes? help
A: It is possible that yout mother-in-law is having mental
problems not related to hormones. She may need to see a
psychologist specializing in geriatric(older) patients.
However, she could benefit from a check on her hormones and
switching to natural hormones along with vitamins, minerals
and herbal therapy. A bone density and mammogram would be good. I would recommend you obtain a copy of the book "Listening to your Hormones" by Gillian Ford. Good Luck!Phillip Warner, M.D. (OB-GYN)
