>Kathy,

Hystersisters is meant to be a site for support, not for medical advice; the founder of the website is quite specific about this. The readers of this forum need to keep this in mind. Progesterone is not always appropriate for each patient and does have side effects. But if a patient isn't getting better, and the doc won't try a different treatment, then it's time to move on.
