Breast Cancer & Alternative Medicine

In a five-year study, only one-third of women with breast cancer who tried alternative medicine in addition to their traditional treatment told their regular doctors about it. The three main reasons cited were a belief that their doctors: 1) weren't interested; 2) would respond negatively, and 3) had inadequate training in or a bias against alternative medicine.

The most common alternative therapies used were Chinese medicine, prayer and/or meditation, and nutritional supplements. Lead investigator Shelley Adler, PhD said, "Understanding why women are hesitant to talk to doctors about their alternative forms of medicine is critical to improving communication and patient care. Some alternative therapies are beneficial, some can be harmful, and others may interact with pharmacologic therapies in significant ways. It's important for everyone involved to share information openly."

Progesterone

Breast cancer cells do not multiply when women are on progesterone. - Joseph M. Mercola, D.O.

Progesterone is best utilized when applied to the skin in a cream. Progesterone cream is made from Mexican wild yam extract.

A healthy hormone balance in the female body is 10 times as much progesterone as estrogen. Starting at about age 35 progesterone production declines, reaching nearly zero at menopause. The resulting estrogen dominance is the primary cause in almost all female health problems. - Dr. Dave Frahm

Estrogen dominance is the only known cause of uterine cancer.

Estrogen slows bone loss, progesterone actually helps to build new bone.

Men can also use progesterone cream to help prevent prostate cancer. The progesterone works with testosterone to offset the cancer stimulating effect of estrogen.
