Since hair growth is a slow process, it may take four to six months for the effects to become apparent. My sister developed breast cancer when she was 45 and still menstruating. I'm now 43 and my periods are changing. The actual causes of breast cancer are still largely unknown, but most authorities agree that estrogen is at least a promoter of breast cancer. In industrialized countries, it has become epidemic that progesterone deficiency and estrogen dominance among women occur during their midthirties.
Estrogen dominance increases the risk of breast cancer.
To prevent breast cancer, it is wise to follow a plant-based diet to avoid xenoestrogens in red meat and dairy foods, and to supplement with natural progesterone. My own doctor doesn't seem to know much about natural progesterone. Tell your doctor that whether he or she knows much about it or not, you plan to use natural progesterone. Ask your doctor to follow along with you, that's all. If you're not particularly pleased with your doctor, you always have the option of looking for another one who is more open-minded.
