Abstract: Consistent relief of physical and psychological disturbances in menopause is achieved by the administration of estrogenic hormones, which are bio-identical to natural estradiol and estriol, in a ratio ranging from 1.1:1.0 to 10.0:1.0, either with or without the combined administration of testosterone in a ratio of total estrogen to testosterone ranging from 11.0:1.0 to 0.9:1.0. These combinations of sex steroids may be administered either on a continuous basis or on a cyclic basis consisting of 21-30 days out of the month for physiological adaptation.

Abstract: An ergonomic, efficient unitary pyramidal-shaped data entry device includes left and right hand members separated from each other by a thumb control surface. Each hand member is formed with four cavities for receiving the four fingers of the left and right hands, respectively, of a user, with the user's thumbs being juxtaposed with the thumb control surface. Each cavity contains three switches, with one switch being operated when the user extends the appropriate finger, a second being operated when the user depresses the finger, and a third being operated when the user retracts the finger. Each switch generates a signal representative of a character of a character set, with thumb switches being operable by the user's thumbs to invoke one of a plurality of sets. The sets include a character set that mimics the conventional QWERTY layout, and also include sets which represent language-optimized layouts. The device can also assume the function of a telephone and a cursor control pad.
