Hi again,
Another question due to the fact that my body has decided to throw me for another loop!
Was wondering if using estriol cream can flare up endometriosis? Have been using nat. Prog and a low dose of estriol. Having to cut down on progesterone due to adrenaline rushes when I use it. Have continued using the estriol at the same dose (1/16th tsp of 2mg/g). Am now only using about 1/16th tsp of progesterone. Was using 1/4tsp progest two months ago and 1/8th tsp progest last month.
I know that I am very sensitive to tiny amounts of hormones. Could a low dose of estriol cause problems if I am cutting back on the progesterone?
Not sure if Pete might have some information on this. Thanks.

Hey Laine! You can email Pete directly at info@bellevuerx.com. I've done it several times, and either Pete, or a member of his staff gets right back to me!!

You can also go to http://www.power-surge.com/asktheexperts/pharmacy.shtml and search the archives, or submit a question!

Not trying to but in, just trying to help! Good Luck!!

Hi Leanne,
Thanks so much for giving me the e-mail address to contact Pete. By no means are you butting in. You couldn't have been more helpful and I just sent him an e-mail.

I believe that, yes, any estrogen will make endometriosis worse. When I had this condition 20 years ago the doctor put me on lupron which takes away all estrogen because she said the estrogen feeds the endo masses. So depleting the body of estrogen for a few months was supposed to stop it, but i eventually need surgery.
