The CLASSIC GUIDE to HORMONES
and WOMEN'S HEALTH
Dr lee's original and ground-breaking work has revolutionised the lives of thousands of women. He lectured worldwide and was a prolific writer. Natural Progesterone is written for health professionals as well as for women who want to understand their own bodies and improve their quality of life.
NATURAL PROGESTERONE is unpopular with the drugs industry because it can't be patented. These multinationals instead patent their own 'progestins', foreign to the human metabolism and the cause of numerous long-standing side-effects. They are used in HRT, the contraceptive pill, and for the treatment of osteoporosis, menstrual and menopausal symptoms, and many other problems.
BY CONTRAST, the natural hormone, identical to that produced by the human body, is easily produced and is free of unpleasant side effects in normal use.
FROM MANY YEARS OF OBSERVATION AND EXPERIENCE in general practice in the USA, Dr Lee has described a new syndrome which he calls 'oestrogen dominance'. He explains how many women come to produce insufficient progesterone — perhaps because they do not ovulate regularly, or are post menopausal — while at the same time being exposed to many oestrogenic chemicals in their food and the environment, and even being prescribed yet more oestrogen by doctors.
THE RESULTING PROBLEMS, he shows, can include water retention, tender and fibrocystic breasts, premenstrual mood swings, depression, loss of libido, fibroids, heavy or irregular periods, craving for sweets, and weight gain — all symptoms treated successfully with natural progesterone.
THIS EDITION has been revised and extended to include new material on hormones and cancer (including understanding and preventing breast cancer and ovarian cancer), getting pregnant and staying pregnant, the role of progesterone in preventing heart disease in women, how to supplement oestrogen safely, how to interpret bone mineral density (BMD) tests (and what to tell your doctor), and valuable information for men who want a healthy prostate. There is also important evidence for the need to use saliva (not blood serum) tests to measure progesterone levels. Vissza
