I chose progynova simply because I objected to the manner in which premarin was harvested from horses. I'm not much of a greenie, but that just seemed a little cruel to me.

I also use provera and spirotne, In the short time I HAVE BEEN ON THESE i BELIVES THEY ARE DOING THE JOB WELL THOUGH I do get impatient along way but my friends boost my self confidence in commenting on changes they note:)) |

Hi girls,
I am on Progynova, having considered the animal and discussions with the Doctor. 4mg a day with 100mg spironolactone per day. I used herbal preparations for two years which gave me a A+ breast size before seeing the Doctor. In four months I have progressed to a nearly full B cup.
Due to remaining high levels of testosterone, I consulted the Doctor and he said I could try different dosages of Progynova. I have no problem with the Progynova until I tried 8mg per day for seven days. Due to the really noticeable moodiness, I had to go back to 4mg on the seventh day, One day later, I was back to my usual self. I suspect that I had PMT like symptoms due to the high levels oestrogen.
Hugs
Norah. |

Hiya all, as Amanda 3 wrote in another post, if you really want to find out about hormones please join CRONE (copy the url below).
The info available here would have to be the best anywhere in this little world of ours.
Don't mess with what's in the back of the medicine cupboard - see a medico, and if that's not possible join CRONE. There are good hormones and ones that are not that good for M2Fs - Premarin being one. But don't just take my word for it, there's a substantial archive at CRONE as well as daily posts.
One interesting thing I found out there is that it ain't testosterone levels that dictate libido, rather estrogen levels. Once I read that, well, off like a rocket I was!

Love to all and take care
