Cindy,
The important thing to look for in choosing a progesterone cream is to find
one that is "bio-identical" - from all that I've read, this is a crucial
factor. The bio-identical creams are made from plants such as wild yam or
soy, and are molecularly identical to the progesterone made by a woman's
body.
Creams that are simply made from wild yam or soy, though, and are not
bio-identical, won't make a whit of difference because our bodies can't
convert the plant estrogens into a form our body can use... so they are
worthless, really, in terms of any hormonal effects.
A really good book on the subject is "Natural Hormonal Balance for Women",
by Dr. Uzzi Reiss, here's a link for it on Amazon...

Hi, Lori,
I said I was perplexed...meaning don't have a clear understanding of the
rights & wrongs of progesterone. :))) The creams didn't work for me.
Will check out the website.
Thanks,
Cindy

Cindy,
This is old school thought. Progesterone balances everyone's hormones.
It
is the same kind of thought that prescribed estrogen to menopausal women
and
gave them higher risks of cancer.
Men use progesterone to help prostate health. Progesterone helps men in
a
number of ways. Check out the website and see what is there.
