Natural Progesterone And Osteoporosis Treatment
Success
David Buster
Using natural progesterone and osteoporosis was successfully
treated? Is it possible? After all, natural progesterone is
safe with virtually no side effects when used correctly. It is
one of the two primary hormones produced in a healthy woman
during the menstrual cycle, the other hormone being estrogen.
In perhaps the only study of natural progesterone and
osteoporosis treatment of its kind, the success obtained by a
leading Harvard-trained physician for reversing osteoporosis in
women is explained.
What is osteoporosis? Osteoporosis is a progressive disease
where the bones become more porous and weaker over time.
Untreated, osteoporosis will weaken, disable and kill both
women and men. Almost half of the women in the United States
will fracture a hip, forearm or spine sometime in their
lifetime. 20% of women who fracture their hip will die within
one year. And it is not just a disease of the elderly.
Osteoporosis regularly begins its destructive process for women
in their thirties. Becoming slightly shorter in height is the
most noticeable of the osteoporosis symptoms. Osteoporosis
causes postural changes, and it makes one more likely to have a
bone fracture as one ages.
There are two kinds of bone cells that one should understand.
Osteoclasts are the cells that travel through bone tissue,
finding bone tissue that needs replacing, removing old bone by
dissolving it and leaving small cavities or pores where there
once was bone. Osteoblasts are the cells that form new bone
cells in the cavities left by the dissolving tissue. This
continuous process of bone resorption and new bone formation is
how bones are kept strong in the healthy body. Bone strength is
the result of the balance of these two processes. Osteoporosis
happens when more bone tissue is being dissolved than is being
rebuilt.
When are the bones the strongest in women? Bone strength is
greatest at around age 30 for women. Bone loss typically begins
in women 5-20 years before menopause. Osteoporosis occurs
regularly in both women and men. Even though a man begins to
lose bone mass considerably later in life than a woman, bone
loss happens in men. Women often begin losing bone mass as
early as in their thirties, whereas bone loss begins in the
fifties for a man. By the time men reach their seventies, their
bone weakness equals that of women.
Harvard-trained Dr. John R. Lee is the author of the
best-selling women's health book What Your Doctor May NOT Tell
You About Menopause. Dr. Lee studied 100 of his women patients
that were in various stages of osteoporosis. The women in his
study ranged in ages from 38 to 83 with 62.5 being the average
age. By adding supplementation with natural progesterone to an
existing natural osteoporosis treatment program, Dr. Lee found
that bone density was increased every year by 3-5% until it
stabilized at the bone density levels expected for a 35-year
old woman! All 100 women using the natural progesterone and
osteoporosis treatment reversed their bone loss and grew new
bone cells. These results are astounding!
Dr. Lee also observed that the women who had experienced the
most bone loss were the ones that increased bone density the
fastest when using this natural progesterone and osteoporosis
reversal treatment! Dr. Lee makes it very clear that natural
progesterone and osteoporosis treatment must include the
osteoporosis treatment elements of proper diet, nutrients and
exercise. And for women approaching the age of menopause (late
forties to early fifties) and older, he felt that natural
progesterone supplementation would greatly benefit women that
had already experienced considerable bone loss, and that
natural progesterone would rebuild new bone cells.
Anyone can easily make healthy lifestyle changes that will
include weight-bearing exercise, proper diet, nutritional
supplements and natural progesterone and osteoporosis
treatment. Stopping bone loss, rebuilding and strengthening
your bones is entirely possible, according to Dr. Lee. If you
or someone you know is at risk for osteoporosis, learn more and
benefit from the successes of Dr. Lee and other physicians in
safely and effectively treating osteoporosis, a debilitating
disease.
