Progesterone Prevents Excess Growth of Tissues Many times patients have asked me why they need to use progesterone supplements. I often reply that progesterone (Progest-Max) is unique because it prevents excessive growth of tissues. In men, excessive growth causes the prostate to become enlarges. In women, excessive growth causes endometriosis and unwanted growth of vaginal tissues. Interestingly, the prostate cells in male fetuses and vaginal cells in female fetuses are the same cells. Thus, both cells are nearly identical and can cause similar problems later on in life. When the body produces excessive amounts of dihydrotestosterone (DHT) or estradiol (E2), both cell types become enlarged. In men, this effect is called benign prostate hyperplasia (BPH). A similar hyperplasia effect is found in women. To curb these adverse effects, it becomes necessary for women to use a special progesterone cream (Progest-Max), 50mg dose, for two weeks only at the end of their menstrual cycles. Me
