Guest guest Posted December 10, 2006 Report Share Posted December 10, 2006 I would like to understand functions of natural estrogen and progesterone. I am having severe hair loss. After menopause, does one need both estrogen and progesterone? Does natural progestone therapy increase the estrogen level? I am considering progesterone cream and would like to know the benefits of this. I would like any any information please. Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted December 11, 2006 Report Share Posted December 11, 2006 This sounds like a thyroid problem. Are you taking one of the synthetic thyroid hormones like Synthroid? If so, you might want to switch to Armour. My hair is much healthier after making this change. Most of us are estrogen dominance so the progesterone cream will help balance your hormones. I would suggest doing a saliva test for hormones. Call a compounding pharmacist in your city and ask for referrals to a doctor that prescribes bio identical hormones. The natural progesterone will probably help, but I think the key is balance. To do this properly you need to work with a doctor that is knowledgeable on bio identical hormone replacement.

Guest guest Posted December 13, 2006 Report Share Posted December 13, 2006 Hair loss can be a thyroid problem, but can also be a symptom of estrogen dominance.
