Book Reviews of Dr. John Lee's Hormone Balance Made Simple: The Essential How-to Guide to Symptoms, Dosage, Timing, and More
Book Review: His easiest book to follow
Summary: 4 Stars
All of his books are good but this one cuts through all of the science and gets down to how to use bioidenticals, mainly progesterone cream. I do get tested (serum and saliva), I do work with a compounding pharmacy and a medical doctor on my natural hormone therapy. The progesterone cream that I used was very helpful to me. And yes, there is such thing as too much of a good thing. You can overdo it on progesterone cream which Dr. Lee and Dr. Diana Schwarzbein, MD (the series of books "The Schwarzbein Principal" will tell you. You can get out of whack. You can get mid cycle bleeding if using to much and you can get a return of your symptoms if you use too much. Unfortunately, there are lots of creams over the counter and through MLM companies that are not necessarily good for you or effective. I haven't heard of "lethal" side effects. That has me curious but can tell you that has never been a discussion with my doctors. I can tell you that I would prefer progesterone cream over any of the synthetic horse pee and other stuff the big pharmas have to offer which lead you to more problems. I guess the message here is: don't over medicate. And, don't assume it's all PMS or all hormones. Remember the hormone systems all work in sync (Schwarzbein Principal book gives good info here). It could be blood sugar or something with diet that adds to your symptoms, cravings, etc. Aside from a few months on Progesterone cream (good ones), I would definitely monitor yourself with some help. Check out womentowomen.com website for a lot of free info and their personal program which is where I got started. And remember, there is no such thing as a risk free hormone (or most supplements for that matter). Natural doesn't mean no side effects. Look at the big picture and get some professional advice if you aren't sure or if you don't feel right. And for the lady with lethal side effects, it would be nice for you to publish that information as not doing so does seem suspect.
