Re: I Was The One Who Quit Natural Progesterone/Armour Thyroid & Testosterone..

Want2beclean, Hi! :)


I was wondering if you felt that discontinuing the progesterone creme has been beneficial to you.

*Yes, because it leaves me with the feeling that I'm not tied to the pharmacy & docs anymore...even if the bio-identicals are labelled "all natural", I don't like being tied to the docs for anything that I can do myself. Everytime I asked them what the ingredients were in those bio-identicals, they literally drug their feet. They didn't want to tell me that the cream was in a base of gmo soy, with parabens up the whazoo or that the dispersing agents in the capsules were chemically based and that the lozenges were sweetened with artificial sweeteners. Wow, was I pissed when I found out! "Natural", my arse!


I only have one ovary, and started using it after discontinuing synthetic hormone Estratest HS (bad stuff). Anyway, I still experience very very sore breasts about 25 days a month.

*For sore breasts, I'd take DIM. 2 x per day 12 hours apart.


I discontinued the progesterone hoping that the Iodine would take care of the sore breasts. For a few days I was pain free, but now the breast pain has returned with a vengence. I never really got relief with the creme, and now that I am without it I find things to be about the same


*I found that taking that stuff (for me, anyway) was admitting that my body couldn't 'do it' itself anymore. The media (including that biotch Suzanne Sommers) has women convinced that the body is limited & incapable of providing for itself & healing itself...admittedly, there are women who will gain some relief with these bio-identicals, but it's still adopting/adapting to the allopathic perview that we need something "they" have and our bodies are simply too old or rundown to provide for itself what it needs. Lies!

Why did you discontinue the progesterone if it is a natural product, and how do you feel better??


*It took my body 3 weeks AFTER I quit to realize that it would and COULD do it itself. I'm 54 & POSTmenopausal. My body regained its innate abilities in about a month WITH the iodine. It was my MIND that I had to convince! I feel the same now as when I was on all that stuff (at $130.00 a month!). I can't believe I got sucked into thinking I needed all that stuff...the body CAN do it if it's got the proper nutrition to do it! Bio-identicals, imo, are for those who don't want to change their bad eating/lifestyle habits in order to strengthen the body. I didn't want to be tied to them...
