Hi Dallas,

I was referring to natural progesterone because the synthetic is extremely bad and it's hard to get it out of the body. Natural progesterone is complimentary to the human body and it's not hard to find.

My mother has taken Syntroid for almost 40 years....tee hee....so she won't change either. I had no idea where the natural came from <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/blush.gif" alt="" />, so I had to look for it......it comes from the glands of pigs.
[[The natural desiccated thyroid drug, Armour Thyroid, which is made from the gland of pigs, and contains two forms of thyroid hormone, T4 and T3. Synthroid, however, is a synthetic drug that contains the synthetically manufacturered form of only one hormone, T4.]]

Dallas, I know how hard it is to get the thyroid leveled.....I would never tell someone to switch. I doubt if it's a threat to health.....I do know a few people who started taking it and they liked it better but another person (after a couple of weeks) went back to her Syntroid.
