Hormone therapy is not reccommended if there is not a need. Too much estrogen has been linked to many cancers, If you are not even in your 20's yet, I would just let your body do some more maturing on it's own.

I'm glad you clarified :) I wasn't trying to be rude but for some reason I was thinking sex change and things like that. People buying estrogen off the street, ha ha I know, weird.. I watch too much tv.

Both estrogen and progesterone are produced naturally by your body...at different rates and at different times of your cycle. Unless your doctor finds that you have a deficiency in either or the two, I would NOT take any supplements. If progesterone is taken at the wrong time of the month, for example, it can actually prevent you from getting pregnant.

I agree. There is not enough info for anyone to answer the question. Is this rx'd or are you self-medicating? What is your diagnosis?

I would not take anything unless your dr prescribes it. It can have affects that maybe you aren't aware of. Best wishes to you and good luck.

Are you screaming? LOL, Anyways, be a bit more specific and people may be able to help you. Perhaps, what you are taking, how much and what you are trying to achieve.
