And I am sure there are many people on both sides of the fence for the progeterone creme issue. The progest did not work for me. Neither on the pain of endo, nor on the regulation of my period. It did not work for anything except to make my breasts sore, and to start messing around with a young girl who is still going through hormonal changes in her life is something I have to disagree with....strongly. Endo runs in families, pure fact. And if your dear daughter is having that much trouble she very well may need a laparoscopy to remove much of the endo. If this is not the cause, the cause must be found. By assuming and treating the symptoms instead of the cause, you are doing her no favors. And may be prolonging her suffering. It may very well be endo, or many other things, but the fact remains,...it needs to be found before arbitrarily starting a treatment that has no scientific fact to back it up. Do more research. You will find many opposed to Dr. John Lee and his views and his book. Please do what is best for your daughter and find the reason. And don't be discouraged by drs who won't listen,. find one who will. I will be praying for you both. God Bless.
