I'm planning to use a bioidentical estradiol cream instead of PM. I might take a low dose PM pill, like Natures Answer Estro Balance during part of the rest of the month, but I'm not sure. For that matter, I might even end up using the Estro Balance instead of the estradiol cream. I really haven't decided yet. I have no idea what I'm doing 
How do I decide how much PC to use (by exact dose in mg) and which days to take it, using hormone charting, saliva test, or whatever other methods you recommend? I know PC gets stored in fat tissue very easily, and this makes it difficult to figure out just how high your progesterone "load" really is. Ginnie used PC in her PM program, and based on hormone tests, she decided she needed to use PC only once every 2 or 3 months. I'm not sure how many days she took it, when she was actually using it. Was it a few days, a week, or what? How do I figure out what's right for me?
If you have any tips on hormone testing, charting, and cycling in general, please help me out. I'm totally lost. Also, I really need to brush up on some of the medical jargon that goes with this particular method, so if you think it might help if you explained some of your terms, that would be great. In other words, I have no idea what I'm doing and I need to learn the basics fast! Feel free to explain it like I'm totally stupid, because when it comes to this stuff, I might as well be.
