Guest guest Posted August 21, 2004 Report Share Posted August 21, 2004 Hi. I sure hope my progesterone works on me. Does your doc in Indiana recommend estrogen or estriol (bioidentical) supplementation for pre-menopausal young females if they have regular periods? I have regular periods and my estrogen is only high at ovulation, the rest of the month it's so-so in the normal range. Are you on estriol? I've heard it's good for hair growth and keeping skin young. Any comments on this?

Guest guest Posted August 24, 2004 Report Share Posted August 24, 2004 You know Marie, I was never placed on any estrogen as I was estrogen dominant. I'm sorry, I am only on progesterone. I wish I could help you on this one. I will throw a blessing though! I hope the progesterone helps your hair loss as it did mine. (as well as joint pain and energy and fogginess ) Love julie Re: Re: I can't sleep - -Marie > >I have PMS too. I'm going to try natural progesterone. I have plenty of estrogen, low testosterone.

Guest guest Posted August 24, 2004 Report Share Posted August 24, 2004 Thanks ! My endo claims that I don't need estrogen either--just the progesterone for PMS. I'm trying it in a couple of days. I hope it helps the PMS and regrow hair.My endo said nothing about progesterone regrowing hair.
