Oprah Winfrey says menopause caught her ``off guard`` and that she's taking bioidentical hormones that have made a big improvement in how she feels. Winfrey writes that the hormone specialist told her that her ``hormonal tank was empty`` and gave her a prescription for bioidentical estrogen. ``After one day on bioidentical estrogen, I felt the veil lift,`` Winfrey writes. ``After three days, the sky was bluer, my brain was no longer fuzzy, my memory was sharper. I was literally singing and had a skip in my step.``Winfrey isn't recommending bioidentical hormones for every menopausal woman. Instead, she urges women to ``take charge of your health`` and says it’s time to ``start the conversation`` about menopause and bioidentical hormones.
