any other hormone tests? Is there a specific time of the month when the blood tests should be performed (I'am assuming these are hormone assay levels)? I think it is a good idea and I will follow up with my gyno. Even though I think my results will probably be within normal range, I am not opposed to exploring every option. I think woman as they enter their early forties have it rough! Two more questions, if I may, would you mind disclosing your age, (I'am 41) and do you have any side effects from the progesterone creme and testosterone replacement therapy (such as acne, excessive hair growth, etc?) Thanks for your suggestions, I will definitely get my hormone levels checked out! Anne
