sue i think you can only take PROGESTERONE only if you dont have a womb??????

Not true.  My HRT involved both estrogen and progesterone and I have not had a hysterectomy.

Retrosig 5/31/07 Drs. Battista & Kazan (Hinsdale, Illinois)
Left AN 3.0 cm (1.5 cm @ diagnosis 6 wks prior) SSD. BAHA implant 3/4/08 (Dr. Battista) Divino 6/4/08  BP100 4/2010 BAHA 5 8/2015

I don't actually "make" trouble..just kind of attract it, fine tune it, and apply it in new and exciting ways

Your right jan , if you have had a hysterectomy you can take  progesterone  only as you have NO womb to protect, but if you still have a womb you have to take the combined hrt to protect the womb
