Kim ---

I do not have any personal experience with either, but from everything I have read natural progesterone cream has much less side effects, and is the better choice. I have definitely not heard of it producing night sweats or hot flashes. In fact, the only side effect at all I have heard is that at first, while your body adjusts to it, you might have unpredictable periods for the first couple months. I have heard lots of success stories with it, though, and very few success stories with Lupron.

Oh yeah, the other positive thing about it is that you have total control over when and how much you take of it. Unlike Lupron, where you get a shot and then you're stuck with it for 1 to 3 months.

You might want to visit the WebMD endo site, as there are a lot of women there taking npc. In fact, there was just a post there the other day that surveyed all those taking it -- and there seems to be 100% positive results so far.
