Fwd: Cognitive Dissonance (BSP Extra) - Home - Brain Science Podcast

[Guest guest]

I've been fascinated by the difficulty some women seem to have with accepting

the feedback that the WP is bad for them. It was also amazing to see the

torrent of negativity I got when I spoke up about the WP not working for most

anyone I encountered, and the other amazing aspect is the complete lack of

empathy in the WP camp for anyone who suffered from it. huh?! Given that it's

completely out of the realm of any kind of dosing supported by science should it

be that hard to take in the truth?

How come? Well, this amazing researcher, Carol Tavris, explains why it's so

hard for us humans to face the truth. As well, Ginger , an ER physician

does a fantastic job with her BrainScience and Books and Ideas podcast

interviews. They are carefully intelligent. I highly recommend both of them.

I was on the WP for almost 6 weeks. I did no research, just heard about it from a lady I know through work, who raved about how wonderful it was working, and how it lifted the brain fog. I thought she told me a lot of ladies in her office were on it, but

later found out she was the only one and the others were on some form of hormone treatment.

They got me started with E first, then after almost 2 weeks of that I started the monthly cycle of E/P. I was not feeling good on the WP, and had some niggly doubts. After the P, and the first bleed I had had in 4 1/2 years, I just quit. I did not

refill my prescription. When I started feeling bad, I started doing research and came across your group. I am so glad I did. I so didn't want to have monthly periods, but the obgyn told me all of her patients said it was worth it, they felt so much

better overall. I was concerned about quitting cold turkey after reading about it, but did it anyway. I was angry at the dr.'s office, and didn't want to go back there. Another concern was that in the 3 1/2 months I was supposed to be on it between appointments,

I never received a follow up call concerning my health or any concerns I might have.

I paid close attention to my body, and didn't notice any side effects or lingering ailments after quitting the protocol. The only thing I have noticed is that I still seem to be losing hair, more than normal for me. I stopped end of July. I am completely

satisfied to have stopped the protocol. I don't know if after I researched it I would have done it anyway, I probably would because I wanted a miracle cure for the brain fog mostly. I could go on but will stop now. Thank you for all your help.
