Summary: START HERE , but do a lot more research
Comment: I'd cautiously recommend this book to other women suffering, as I do, from premenopause. Written for women who take an active role in their own health care, much of this book provides enlightening information, in layperson's language, about our ever changing hormones and the role they play in a woman's health. The author's theories on causes of hormonal imbalances are provocative, and I'm inclinded to believe that toxic chemicals can cause hormonal upsets, but these theories are as yet unproven. If you have a serious health concern, please do more research...read, read, read. There is a tremendous amount of information on line that can be of help. This book does excel in providing important information about the link between diet and a healthy hormonal balance, and I am following a number of the recommendations in this book. Progesterone Cream, recommended by the authors, may not be the cure for every symptom of premenopause. The jury is out on the use of progesterone cream to treat uterine fibroids, a condition that affects between 30-50% of women in their 30s and 40s. My recommendation for this book is to read it thoroughly, but cautiously... and to follow up with more research on line. I wish you good health!

Summary: Bought for both my daughters
Comment: I have read this book and reread sections of it that I felt applied to my current health issues. In the process, I saw that both of my daughters....late 20's....could benefit from reading Dr. Lee's book.
I wish this book had been out before my hysterectomy in 1990---due to problems from an over production of estrogen in my body. I am now experiencing pelvic pain from ovarian cysts and have begun using the recommended progesterone cream---(this is the first time in 5 years that I have slept uninterrupted for 6+ hours---my normal has been 2.5 to 3 hours). I suspect that the cysts will shrink as well.
Thank you Drs. Lee and Hanley!

Summary: Learned the *very* hard way - Please Be Careful!
Comment: Dr. Lee's book convinced me to try natural progesterone, and it was one of the worst decisions ever. After only one month of use, I developed blood clots in my legs, and became so ill that it has taken over six months to recover. Progesterone cream builds up in your tissues over time and can make you very, very sick. Do not believe it when you read that there are no side effects and it is impossible to overdose. Know that the progesterone you're putting on your skin, although "natural", is capable of having all the same effects as the progesterone in birth control pills and RU-486 ~ in other words, you're using something with serious dangers connected to it. Please, please be careful. Get Barbara Seaman or Ellen Grant, MD's books for better information.
