Pregnancy Info HOME

Ladies, please get the book "What your doctor won't tell you about premenopause" By Dr. Lee and Dr. Hanley. I just read it . I was at the end of my ropes. I had 2 miscarries this past year, was depressed, fatigued, had night sweats, insomnia, weight gain, hot flashes, sore breasts, low progesterone levels during luteal phase, endometriosis, uterine fibroids, irregualr periods etc. My ob/gyn didn't want to see me unless I was testing positive for pregnancy, my family doctor prescribed Prozac and sent me to a shrink. I am 36 and with all of the above symptoms you would think premenopause would of struck somebody in the head as being an option. As I filled my perscription for Prozac at the pharmacy I noticed the book on the shelf and the words," Natural Progesterone" and "Premenopause from 30-50yrs." hit me. I read the book in 2 days and have ordered the Natural Progesterone Cream. I start using it this weekend after I ovulate. It can't hurt and even if I never get pregnant again it will help my PMS and other symptoms that I have been suffering with. When my OB/GYN told me my progesterone was low (which causes me to be estrogen dominant which promotes cancer!) you think she would of checked the rest of my hormones and tried to level them out. All she said was that if I should get pregnant again she would put me on Progesterone. Well if you have low progesterone during your luteal phase you may not get preganant again. She didn't want to hear it. Well, I'm just going to have to play a more active roll when it comes to my health and the health of my family. I'm not going to sit back and believe what every doctor tells me. I don't believe that every woman needs to have a hysterectomy either. If you are balancing your homones you should be able to keep it. Think about it, 40 years ago women didn't die because they kept their uterous. Their hormones changed and they had problems. Then they went through menopause and their problems stopped. Anyway read the book. It's the best $5.00 I have ever spent.
