Dr. Lee's thought-provoking book, "What Your Doctor May Not Tell You About PREmenopause," provides tips for finding a physician who will treat you naturally, as well as advice for educating your physician about natural progesterone and other natural treatments. He cautions the importance of reading labels when purchasing natural progesterone cream and stresses that because a product says it contains "wild yam extract" is no guarantee that it contains real natural progesterone. His book includes a list of recommended resources for obtaining the cream. He also suggests that saliva tests are a more accurate method of obtaining hormone levels than the traditional blood tests and offers information about getting saliva tests when your physician is uneducated about this type of test.
Dr. Lee is also the author of a monthly medical newsletter where he keeps you informed about the latest medical research about natural progesterone and other important topics. In this month's newsletter he discusses the danger of fluoride in our water supplies and the surprising truth about its benefits to your dental health. Each newsletter includes articles by Dr. Lee, as well as a question and answer section, and resources for further information
Dr. Lee is not alone in his efforts to promote natural progesterone; Dr. Susan Love in her book, "Dr. Susan Love's Hormone Book," Christine Conrad in her book "Natural Woman, Natural Menopause," and Raquel Martin in her book, "The Estrogen Alternative," also discuss the importance of hormonal balance with natural progesterone.
