Hi Colleen,Thanks so much for sharing your experiences. Interestingly, my doctor didn't say anything at all about the estradiol level, nor re. my endometrial lining. Instead, she was concerned about a breast lump in my armpit and has arranged for me to get an ultrasound and mammogram . . . which isn't scheduled until January 20th. I didn't have a chance to look at my test results until I got home, so didn't realize my estradiol and endometrial lining were higher than normal.I am very worried re. the breast lump and wonder if my high estradiol level could be indicative of breast cancer? Has anyone on this board ever heard of such a correlation? I am considering stopping all my brht until my test in January, which should lower the estradiol and if I am lucky enough to have a good bleed, my also reduce the endometrial lining. Does anyone have any thoughts they are willing to share re. this

idea?many thanks,Sadie> > From: bjrksadie <bjrsadie@.. .>> Subject:

High estradiol can cuase yeast, but low progesterone causes yeast

too so it is more that an imbalance casues yeast. I was PLAGUED with

yeast in my mid-40's and once I started taking porgesteorne it

cleared right up.
