WOMEN'S HEALTH
Female Hormone
In female the sex hormones are made from the ovaries, they are Estrogen, Progesterone and some Testosterone. Now Estrogen is what gives women their feminine features like their body development, breast shape, hips, hair and voice.
The testosterone is responsible for the bones; muscle development and the progesterone prepare the uterus for ovulation and help maintain healthy pregnancy. Progesterone is also precursor of other hormones in the body.
Progesterone normally decreases, as women are reaches menopause because women no longer ovulating and no longer produce progesterone. But the body continues to produce Estrogen causing it to be the dominant hormone. Having Estrogen dominant is where most female problem begins.
Imbalance hormones poses a risk of developing breast and ovarian cancer. There are other problem that women may start experiencing such as hot flashes, mood swing, and low libido. Many women will complain to their doctor about these conditions and as a result they are given progestine hormone replacement, which is a synthetic form of estrogen.
This form of estrogen puts them at greater risk of developing cancer. Women may also experience anxiety, pain, fatigue and depression and if their doctors are not familiar with natural progesterone, they may mistake their symptom for something else and end up prescribing medication for each, which are not necessary. When all the women really need is natural hormone replacement (progesterone).
What Your Doctor May Not Know
Believe it or not some male doctors don't know much about treating menopause let alone what to recommend to a women going through menopause. The doctors means well, but they are not taught about natural progesterone in medical school.
The pharmaceutical company finance medical school so they can get the doctor to prescribe their drugs to patients. Since progesterone is natural and cheaper, not much interest is invest in terms of doing research on the subject. That’s whole other topic I will have to get into about the pharmaceutical industry. This is how they make their money by controlling what is being trained in medical so they can formulate more drugs.
Avoid Synthetic Hormone Replacement
Women should never take that famous hormone replacement HRT. You've heard all the news about these women developing breast cancer. It is because of these factors that most women are afraid of taking hormone replacement, which is necessary to balance out the their hormones.
Learn The Facts About Natural Progesterone
Women you need to start educating yourself about natural progesterone replacement and how beneficial it is to your health. In other to maintain balance hormone, women over the age of 35 need natural progesterone.

How Natural Progesterone Helped Me
I started taking natural hormone replacement as a preventative measure after the age of 35 because that’s when hormones start to become imbalance, which puts me at risk of developing breast and ovarian cancer. I also notice that my voice was getting a deeper especially when I wake up in the morning. Since taking the progresta plus my voice tone is back to normal, I’m less moody and more relaxed even during menstrual cycle. The hormone replacement that I use is Progesta Plus Pump 3 Ounces
. It aligns with ingredient that John R. Lee, and Virginia Hopkins, M.A. recommends. Plus the ingredients are natural and have benefited me a great deal.
The Danger of Using Birth Control
Another thing I want to mention is for those women who take birth control pills you are at risk of developing these types of cancers because these pills are synthetic hormone. Just think about it. You are taking something unnatural that prevents women from getting pregnant. That’s messing with Mother Nature. Can you imagine what is going on in your body? What that chemical is doing to your reproductive organ? That cannot be natural. Try to find an alternative way to prevent pregnancy without having to resort to this dangerous pill.
Healthy Pregnancy
When a woman decides to have a baby, their diets should be as healthy as possible which includes foods rich in iron, folic acid, zinc and calcium. These vitamins are necessary to insure a healthy pregnancy.
The reason is because when a woman is pregnant she is now eating for two. For herself and for the baby she is carrying. The body goes through a lot of changes during that phase. And that can put a lot of stress on the body. So feeding the body proper nutrition is essential for the mother’s health and the baby.
For instance the mother needs plenty of calcium to produce healthy milk for the baby so that when she breast feeds, the baby gets a good source of calcium that will aid the baby in growing health teeth and bones. The mother also needs folic acid to prevent spina bifida. and other neural tube defects. Generally a high quality pre-natal vitamin and a healthy diet are crucial during pregnancy.
Mammogram Why You should Never Get One
It’s funny how for past forty years the breast cancer rate has increase. More and more women are being diagnosed with breast cancer every year. Why do you ask? Well do search and find out when mammogram screening started.
All of a sudden women as young as 30 years old are getting breast cancer and yet their doctor’s keeps recommending for them to get yearly mammogram screening by crushing the breast into a pancake and running radiation over the sensitive tissue. By getting this procedure over a period of time, that radiation exposure starts to accumulate and puts you at greater risk of developing breast cancer..
Sometimes you can get a negative reading and they have to run the test again .Can you imagine how dangerous radiation is on sensitive tissue? Doesn’t radiation increase cancer? Take for instance how come when you have to get your teeth x-ray and you are told to put on a protective jacket. That’s because the doctors knows that it may poses a threat to your body.
So why is it that women are continually being told to get this deadly form of procedure? Well you know where I going with this, that’s where the money. The sicker you are the more money it generates.
Thermography A Safer Way of Detecting Breast Cancer
I've got news for you there's a healthier way for getting your breast exam; that is Thermography. It’s safer, there’s no radiation, it doesn’t involve compressing the breast and it detects breast cancer much better. As a matter of fact it detects cancer that a regularly mammogram wouldn’t. It can discover breast cancer 5-10 years in advance.
But most insurance refuse to pay for it even though the FDA has approve the procedure. For those of you who are reading this, please pass this information around to you female friends and family to avoid putting themselves at risk by getting mammogram and switch to Thermography.
