Confused about progesterone cream

Dear Linda,

I would highly recommend that you purcahase the book by Dr. John Lee, "What your Doctor May Not Tell You About Breast Cancer". My daughter, (diagnosed with TNBC in 2007),  purchased this book  just recently, and told me that had she bought this book first, she would not have purchased any other. She has been taking BHRT since June of 2009, and after all that she had to endure going through a mastectomy, chemo and rads, she finally has her life back. She would never....never take the synthetic progesterone, or estrogen.  

I found this link for you, and I will search for the other thread on BHRT, and bump it forward for you. You need to read and then make your decision. This is your life...your body.

Progesterone Cream Works

Progesterone is highly fat-soluble compound exceedingly well absorbed when applied transdermally or onto the skin. According to hormone researcher David Zava, Ph.D., progesterone is by far the most lipophilic, or fat-loving, of the steroid hormones. It circulates in the blood, carried by fat-soluble substances such as red blood cell membranes. Some 70 to 80 percent of ovary-made progesterone is carried on red blood cells and thus is not measured by serum or plasma blood tests. This progesterone is available to the body for use, and readily filters through the saliva glands into saliva where it can be measured accurately. The remaining 20 to 30 percent of progesterone in the body is protein-bound and is found in the watery blood plasma where it can be measured by serum or plasma blood tests. However, only 1 to 9 percent of this progesterone is available to the body for use. That is why saliva testing is a far more accurate and relevant test than blood tests in measuring bio-available progesterone.
