PR+, progesterone, estrogen

Hopeful,

You have great information. Thank-you! Shows hard work on your part.

I cannot remember if you were ER+PR+, but I am wondering what you know about the progesterone end of things. The fact that ER+/PR+ does better than ER+/PR- is another counter-intuitive for me. (if indeed progesterone is BAD for this type of bc) I read very little about the PR+ element, in fact many sources ONLY refer to ER+ without distinguishing between ER+/PR- and ER+/PR+

Are you familiar with Dr. Lee's books on natural progesterone? Much of what he says makes sense, (but rather rattling). If progesterone does work to eliminate estrogen dominance, than it seems to counter the advice on estrogen. Or just the lack-there of re: progesterone (NATURAL)

His bc book, however, says nothing on PR+ tumors one way or the other, at least that I can find.
