Quoting Destiny from another thread:
"Once my thyroid is healed and I cleansed my body of the PUFAs I wont need either thyroid or progesterone ideally.
Dr Peat emailed me: "I think continuing the progesterone would help to normalize thyroid responses. If you adjust the thyroid dose every two weeks according to how you feel, and according to your temperatures and pulse rate, there should be a point where your cycle is right, without needing progesterone. During the winter the need for thyroid is higher, because of the short days, so it's important to watch for decreasing need when the days are longer in the spring." "
I am wondering how we can know if we need to take progesterone, or not, as women?
