The first thing we must realize is that it is absolutely normal and healthy for female tissues to have progesterone receptors. Secondly we need to realize that the reason those receptors are there is to act as a counterbalance to the estrogen receptors. In other words, female tissues normally take up both hormones, which is why the receptors are there in the first place. The presence of the receptors has nothing to do with what causes the cancer to occur. The progesterone receptor is there to facilitate the uptake of the calming and protective progesterone in order to prevent the estrogen from becoming carcinogenic.
Progesterone is protective against cancer caused by excess estrogen.
Since this is the case, the supplemental use of transdermal progesterone cream offers the body the opportunity to provide those receptor sites with progesterone which they can then take into those tissues in order to provide a higher level of protection from the development of cancer than would be possible with lower tissue levels of progesterone. I hope this is helpful to everyone's understanding. One of the problems which makes it difficult for women to conceive is the development of endometriosis. This is a condition now thought by many authorities to be brought on by a lack of sufficient magnesium and vitamin B-6 combined with stress. These women are generally characterized by very painful uterine cramps during their menstrual period.
