NatPro

[Aliantha]

I don't know if you're aware or not, but I suffer from fairly severe psoriasis. I get it on most parts of my body to a greater or lesser extent. It tends to be a bit mobile. It starts out as a little flaky bit of skin that sort of looks like a ringworm and then just grows until it covers a large area, but here's the thing. Whilst I was pregnant with Max, it completely, and I mean totally 100% disappeared. I was so hopeful that once he was born it would stay gone, but alas, it is back bigger and better than ever (or so it would seem). I've had strong suspicions for obvious reasons that it could have been a hormonal difference which caused the change, so I consulted with a number of people on the subject, including my cousin the midwife about whether or not this could be the case. Ultimately, most have come up with the suggestion that it's the increased levels of progesterone during pregnancy which would be the most likely culprit, so I've decided to invest in a product called NatPro which in short is a natural progesterone suppliment. The same thing women use during HRT.

So anyway, I've ordered a batch and it should arrive in the next week or so. Unfortunately I wont be able to use for a further two or three weeks after that, but such is life. It's a small sacrifice if it happens to provide a cure.

Anyway, I thought I'd post this because there are others here who might benefit from this even if it's not the cure I'm looking for. Also, I was wondering if anyone else had in info on this sort of thing that might be helpful.
