Has anyone used Provera 2.5 or Prometrium 100mg with either Yasmin or Yaz on the protocol to increase breast changes? Can these progesterones be used with Yasmin/Yaz or only the 1/35 type pills like Ortho?

Thanks,
Annie

Thanks for your reply. Unfortunately I emailed her a week and a half ago but didn't hear anything back. I also tried Dr. Newman but didn't hear from him either. Feeling sort of helpless about what I should and shouldn't do...

I did previously try her at both addresses with a related question without hearing back but will try again.

Thanks

Claudia, I was able to trade emails with Lenore. She said that they no longer recommend Yasmin or Yaz for the protocols due to the increased risk of thrombosis. She recommended Ortho 1/35 instead because it provides better results. She also suggested that I talk to my doctor about taking a low-dose aspirin if I'm going to continue with Yaz.

Appreciate your reply and just wanted to thank you for your reply and suggesting that I reach out to Lenore.
