Citing longstanding and emerging research, patient vignettes, and personal experience, endocrinologist Jerilynn Prior and writer Susan Baxter explain how false beliefs about estrogen became entrenched in U.S. medicine and culture--and how and why business and politics have played a role in this erroneous thinking. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eLike most women in Europe now, Prior's patients find progesterone the key to dealing with a lifecycle transition that, contrary to Western medicine, these authors do not see as a disease. Challenging medical orthodoxy, \u003ci\u003eThe Estrogen Errors: Why Progesterone Is Better for Women's Health\u003c\/i\u003e presents arguments and evidence that women and their doctors, male and female, will find compelling and useful.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Susan Baxter Ph D., Jerilynn C.
