Hormone Replacement Therapy :Yes or No?: How to Make an Informed Decision About Estrogen, Progesterone, & Other Strategies for Dealing With PMS, Menopause, & Osteoporosis Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)Betty Kamen has written a great book about estrogen, progesterone, PMS, menopause, and osteoporosis, which was based on research.Betty states, "Impressive evidence now validates beyond a doubt that progesterone, progesterone-like extracts, and certain herbs can correct a deficiency which is proving to be the real cause of PMS, the real cause of menopausal symptoms, the real cause of osteoporosis."Most doctors treat their patients by writing prescriptions for drugs manufactured by the major pharmaceutical companies, which in this case may be synthetic estrogen.One problem with synthetic estrogen pills or tablets is that only a fraction will be absorbed by the body because of "first-pass" removal of foreign hormones by the liver.These synthetic estrogens have also been shown in many research studies to increase the risk breast cancer and other forms of cancer.Your doctor is unlikely to tell you about the benefits of the natural progesterone which cannot be patented by the pharmaceutical companies.Progesterone is an important building block in estrogen production, and when progesterone levels peak in the menstrual cycle, there will be 140 times more progesterone than estrogen.Diosgenin, which is a Mexican yam extract, has been made to match natural progesterone exactly.It is safe and when used in a transdermal or cream form does not have the "first-pass" liver problem.The application of natural Diosgenin in a cream base with other synergistic herbs has shown incredible success as a hormone replacement therapy.
