This review is from: Natural Progesterone: The Natural Way to Alleviate Symptoms of Menopause, PMS, and Other Hormone-Related Problems (Paperback)

I found this book less informative than others on progesterone such as Dr. Lee's "What Your Doctor May Not Tell You..." books or "The Estrogen Alternative" But it still covers the basics. It does not contain an extensive reference section or "lessons" in biology to answer the biggest question, "why?". This is a good book for those who are just learning and have many questions. The question and answer format allows the reader to get direct answers to questions instead of having to read the whole book to get an answer to a specific question.

This review is from: Natural Progesterone: The Natural Way to Alleviate Symptoms of Menopause, PMS, and Other Hormone-Related Problems (Paperback)

Although this book is a bit weak in explanations as to why this is happening to our bodies, I appreciate the fact that the title includes "Progesterone". My reason why is that I was prescribed synthetic progesterone when I first started suffering from those perimenopausal problems. I got so depressed it was scary. I stopped them immediately and sought out alternatives... a site where my family has purchased supplements, herbs and vitamins for several years now has a whole section devoted to women's health. There I found some blends that are helping me immensely. I ordered ... a black cohosh blend and a wild yam cream, followed the directions and am feeling much more myself. Although this book doesn't cover it all, it is good for empowering women to not settle for synthetic forms when there are so many natural forms out there. In case you are doing searches for these, another word for these are phytoestrogers. Check them out...
