Exactly, Adrienne!!  That is why I find the usage of the word "progesterone" highly suspect.  The hormones given to cows, etc., are not natural hormones, so I lean towards the fact that they were actually talking about progestin.  Just my opinion, of course, not being a scientist.

Personally, I think that "study" is a bunch of BS. I would rather rely on 
the findings of people like Dr. John Lee, who spent most of his life researching 
the benefits of progesterone (not progestin, a term which is used 
interchangeably in the scientific field, unfortunately, because it is NOT the same), 
rather than this guy who did a "couple" of "studies".

Good points. One thing I forgot to ask in my last posting is whether or not 
organic dairy products were used in the study. Maybe that would affect the 
test results since to my knowledge, organic dairy does not come from cows who 
are purposely kept preggers their entire lives via artificial hormones.
