Again the usual caveat. I came across this looking for something else. It is cogently written not associated with any advertising, and seems to be from the heart.
Any thoughts or questions you must talk to your advisor.
I simply post this in the interest of wide ranging debate. I am not in a position to judge if it is right or wrong.

How Progesterone Protects Against Breast Cancer
from "Hormones Without Fear" by Ivy Greenwell
"Even this is not yet full picture, and one could still discuss proto-oncogenes, epidemiological studies, and various animal and clinical studies. However, just on the basis of its physiological action the evidence is pretty overwhelming that progesterone does indeed protect against breast cancer. Usually one sees this statement: "protects against endometrial cancer" and the more tentative "helps protect against breast cancer.""
