Amount in the cream/gel is important and too much can cause overdose symptoms, however mild. Prometrium is prescription oral natural progesterone, Provera is prescription synthetic progestin, not the same as real progesterone. Progesterone cures the side effects that syntheic progestins cause. I personnally never recommend any synthetic hormone because your body may not recognize it and it may cause serious side effects for that reason. If the real thing is available, why bother with synthetics? I have used progesterone for 8 years and it has been a lifesaver, controls my severe endo, cured my fibrocystic breasts, stopped my heavy painful periods (now normal periods), regulated my cycles, kept my bone density high, and even allowed me to get off seizure medication! Sounds like a miracle, huh?! It has been for me but it may not be all that for someone else. Definitely worth trying. BJ
>To those of you on Progestrone Cream/Gel, Do you use it everyday or just certain times of the month? What benefits do you see from it?? Whats the differnce between the creams/gels and Prometruim/Provera?? Thanks, Nicole
