Flax is an aromatase inhibitor, so don't take too much of it.
Also watch your progesterone level (best to make a saliva test before you start using PC and again after some months). It builds up in the fat tissue and I know some women who used progesterone cream (in their luteal phase only) for some months and after retesting their progesterone level via a saliva test, their level did skyrocket!
For example my friend, she started using USP progesterone cream, because her level was below the range and her naturopath recommended PC. She used a 2% cream and just a tiny amount for 4 month and retested her progesterone value again (same lab). It was not only over the range, it was 4x above the range!! Also before she started using PC her estradiol level was too high and after using PC for 4 month her estradiol level was too low! Many other women experienced the same. So be careful with PC.
