I'm 39 and am, in fact, in the early stages of menopause. I have a wonderful boyfriend who is a very sensual and romatic lover whom I'm very attracted to but my sex drive is just low – DAMMIT – is there something I can take like Viagra for women? Any natural remedies? I hate the feeling of turning him down or, on the flip side, doing it when I don't really want to. Please help!

i'm just wondering if they would alter any of these and, if so, how:

mood
sex drive
weight/fat gain or muscle loss, etc
breast growth??
body hair/hair growth
abnormal hormonal levels of any sort
appetite
"monthly cycle"

these are mostly what i'm concerned about. i don't know many of the benefits to taking estrogen, but overall, are they a good idea or.. not so much?
