I have taken Winona for 2 months just…
I have taken Winona for 2 months just started my third month. I do have energy, my joints feel much better and I am much more lucid. I haven't lost weight but that is not my focus. I am weight lifting to keep up and build muscle.
Response from By Winona· Jul 16, 2024
We are sorry that you have not experienced results as fast as as you had hoped, Lola! Having more energy, increased joint mobility, and diminished brain fog are all great results, but other things, like weight loss, may take more time. Its great that you are lifting weights! Keep going, as that will increase your metabolism and lead to increased muscle mass. We see that you just completed your Follow Up with your Winona doctor, and they have left you a message within your Patient Portal that you can retrieve here: https://app.bywinona.com/message We are hopeful that if your treatment plan is adjusted, that you will see the results that you are hoping for. Providing service worthy of 5 stars is always our goal, so a member of our Patient Care Team has emailed you for further support!

Amazing stuff!
Be patient. Give it some time and it will work and off you need to they can adjust the dosage to increase or decrease. But I am continuing to stay on Winona because it works and they are all so supportive. I’m continuing this because it’s working and no side effects at all.

Thank you for your review and great advice, Denise! HRT can do wonderful things for our symptoms, but the results are not always automatic. We caution women that it may take at least 3 months or more to see positive results. Each woman has a different set of symptoms, a different body chemistry, and a different set of goals, so patience is definitely a key ingredient in a treatment plan. And you are correct....treatment plans can be adjusted, if needed, to help you meet your goals! We are so happy to hear that yours is working for you!

I’m so happy to be able to just be okay. It’s been so helpful not to feel so off and strange all the time. I’m feeling back to myself and that’s so huge. No regrets.. been great!

The menopause transition can be one of the most life altering events a woman will go through, Christina, but women are often not prepared for it! Anxiety, low mood, a sense of unease, not to mention all the physical changes in our body, can leave us feeling like a stranger to ourselves. You deserve to feel like the best version of yourself, and we are proud to help you do that! Thank you for your trust in us!

I was struggling with bloated stomach
I was struggling with bloated stomach, gas, fatigue, joint pain, brain fog, low energy, and low libido. I couldn't hardly exercise without feeling like I had been hit by a truck. I didn't want to go to my gyn just to get the run around because I don't have health insurance, so I thought I would try Winona, and am I glad I did! In the first week (it will be different for everyone, may take longer for some) I felt so much better! Everything I mentioned above got better. I even lost some weight already! I had a question and within 24 hour my doctor answered me! I am so glad I decided to give Winona a try!

We are so glad that you decided to give Winona a chance too, Yvette! We appreciate your review because your experience will resonate with so many women who may be hesitant to try bioidentical HRT. They will see that relief is possible! It sounds like you were having some pretty severe symptoms and we applaud your forethought to know you don't have to accept them! And thank you for the shout out to your Winona doctor.....they truly do care about your health and well-being and want to help you in any way possible! Thank you for the 5 stars!

Simple to start, but I miss human interaction.
It was a simple process to get going and the BHRT really helped. I would like a little more in person or even zoom interaction to know that this is not all AI generated. My regular physician is going to finally prescribe my HRT which will be much less with my insurance cost wise, plus she will check my hormones through a blood test.
Response from By Winona· Jul 16, 2024
Thank you for your feedback, Justina! We know that in today's world human interaction is becoming a less common thing as AI increases. However, we can assure you that we are real people behind your screen! These are real prescription medications, prescribed by real board certified doctors, and that can't be accomplished by AI. They review each and every woman personally to make sure she is a good candidate for treatment. Our doctors do not speak on the phone, or communicate through zoom calls, to protect your privacy. They continue to maintain hospital hours, and they do not want to breach your confidentiality accidentally by someone listening on their end, or yours. We are glad to hear that your personal doctor is onboard with HRT, but please know that it is not prescribed based on lab work. Blood hormone levels can vary greatly from day-to-day, so blood tests are not necessarily an accurate indication of what you might need. Bloodwork can appear "perfect" on paper, but you still may have symptoms. HRT is, therefore, prescribed based on symptoms and medical history. We want you to feel better, not necessarily "fix" your lab values. We would be sorry to see you go, but are proud to have helped you find relief so far!

Winona is a life saver for women!
I never thought I could get rid of these horrible symptoms of menopause. Thank goodness for Winona! The night sweats and hot flashes are gone and the brain fog has subsided. I can finally get a good night sleep and have energy again. I would recommend Winona to anyone going through peri menopause or menopause. What a game changer!
Response from By Winona· Jul 15, 2024
We appreciate your recommendation, Marcia! A lot of women are told that menopause symptoms are just something to be dealt with and to get used to them. However, for appropriately screened patients, there is no reason to suffer with hot flashes, brain fog, joint pain, mood changes, insomnia, etc., or the myriad of other menopause related symptoms. We are so happy to hear that you are well on your way to living your best life now! Thank you for the 5 stars!

I am so happy and grateful for Winona
I am so happy and grateful for Winona! At 45yo, my symptoms over the last 3 yrs had become unbearable. Extreme fatigue, muscle and joint pain, night-sweats and moodiness/ irritability being the worst. The 50/50 Winona bHRT cream works! I feel calm inside and out, like myself again with energy and no pain. I am thrilled I went for it and gave bHRT a try. My Winona Dr. Has been responsive and helpful and I found that products arrive in a timely manner. Thank you so much!

The menopause transition affects not only women, but their loved ones as well, ES. Symptoms can leave you feeling angry, fatigued, and frustrated, which impacts our relationships with others. We are so happy to hear that you are now feeling like yourself again! Hearing stories like yours deepens our commitment to providing safe, quality, and effective HRT to women! We appreciate your trust in us!
