Wooohoo!

I thought it was odd that it didn't include progesterone, but I've tripled-checked it. So once I begin a program, how often should I get my levels checked? Also, does the current shape of my breasts influence what program I should implement?

Thanks for the speedy response!

Frequency:

Doesn't really matter that much, especially if you aren't getting progesterone checked. You're just as stuck as someone not getting tested at all on the guessing game of where your E/P balance is. Based on these numbers though, I'd suspect you're pretty much balanced right now starting out.

Shape:

I don't believe this really matters much. For the most part, shape is genetic, about the only thing hormonal about it is that if you have really saggy breasts it is possible you have too much progesterone. But again, from your levels I kind of doubt you'd have hormonally based sagging breasts.

Other thoughts:

I'm not entirely sure on what is "best" in terms of cycling, but you'll most likely want to cycle unless you are on a BCP that causes you not to have a period. What this means is to up your dose at peak times, and go off entirely at low times. Some girls do like 2 weeks on, starting right after their period, while others try to aim for the actual peaks and valleys perfectly.

There's plenty of threads around with ideas about both and some link to the female reproductive cycle if you are unfamiliar with it.
