Thank you for responding, sorry it took so long for me to get back with you. I have decided to push back the surgery. I have an appointment next Thursday to discuss why I cancelled with my doctor. Of course they won't let me talk to him on the phone because then they couldn't charge me for an office visit, ha! Anyway, I do feel better with my decision. There is a lot of info about the progesterone cream on this website, just type it in the search section. The progesterone I use if Progest Care and I get it at the health food store. It works out to be cheaper then birth control pills were for me so it isn't so bad. Another source to look at is Dr. John Lee's website and book, "What your doctor may not tell you about pre menopause". That is where I first learned most of my info on it. It is worth looking in to and see if it might be something that would work for you. Let me know. Take care, Amy At Wed, 8 Sep 2004, Angie wrote: >
