Solving a breast cancer mystery – why do ‘double-positive’ women do better?

This post is a research article;

I am putting this out for general discussion.  70% of us are double-positive so this is an important topic.  This research came from England and was in collaboration with University of Adelaide.  But this isn't the first research article I have read about the protective nature of progesterone on breast tissue.

When you read the article please ensure you read to the end where there is a notation regarding difference between progesterin (found in HRT which is not so good) and natural progeseterone which this article is about. I am post treatments and use natural compounded progesterone cream.

I would however, be interested to know what you all think and interested to know what your medical teams, particularly Oncologists think about the science.  Here is the article:

For the research nerds like me out there, this is also interesting:
