Listen up Malina (the english teacher) I type on a laptop with one hand behind my back in the dark....these things have a mind of their own.
Most women are a little low in progesterone. Depending on your age women and men can use progesterone. The term estrogen dominance really is a term which refers to low progesterone. Progesterone has several functions in women. It helps to sensitize receptors, it actually down regulates estradiol (estrogens) and up regulates and down regulates several genes. There is a school of thought that low progesterone plays a big role in hormonally based cancers in men and women. Leaving out the influence on genes......there is a problem in the conversion of estrone to estradiol. There is a metabolic problem where an undesirable intermediate compound is produced that is mutagenic. A reletively benign dose is 20 mg 3 to 5 times/ week for 2 weeks of the month before menstruation. You don;t have to balance it you just need to use sensible dosing. Excess progesterone converts to estradiol.
