Frankfort, IL - October 1, 2002 - The treatment is the use

of natural progesterone and the reason is money. Pamela

Hett-Dobricky, M.B.A., a health care educator is on a

mission to educate men about the use of natural progesterone

in promoting good prostate health and in the treatment of

Prostate Cancer.

New research by Brent Formby, Ph.D. at the Sansum Medical

Research Institute in Santa Barbara, CA has uncovered

evidence that progesterone may help men with prostate

problems. His results showed that progesterone inhibits the

growth of prostate cancer cells and that estradiol

(estrogen) and dihdrotestosterone (DHT) (bad testosterone)

accelerate prostate cancer cell growth.

So if this is true, why aren't doctors prescribing natural

progesterone to their patients? The answers are money and

lack of knowledge. First money, truly natural progesterone,

one that is the same chemical composition that our bodies

make can not be patented. You can not patent a natural

occurring substance. If you can't patent it, you can't make

money. Secondly doctors remain cautious and wary of a drug

that doesn't show up in their medical literature, and does

not appear to have any credibility behind it. It is a

vicious circle, if a substance can not be patented, there is

no money to be made, then if there is no money to be made,

and then there is no reason for a drug company to do a

clinical trial to see if the substance is beneficial.

Each year over 400,000 men in the United States alone

undergo prostate surgery and over a billion dollars a year

is spent on prostate treatment. Proscar, the leading drug is

highly dangerous and according to the United States

Veteran's Administration is no more effective than a sugar

pill. On the opposite side there are no side effects to

using natural progesterone. By the age of 50, 35% of men

have cancer cells in their prostate. Odds are 2 to 1 a man

will have prostate problems by the time they are 60.

Ms. Hett-Dobricky's mission is to get the word out to men

about the benefits of natural progesterone. How to educate

and work with your doctor to add this to your treatment

regime. Understanding how to use natural progesterone to

alleviate symptoms associated with enlarged prostate and how

it can enhance libido, improve energy, stamina and

endurance. Ms. Hett-Dobricky explains why a natural

progesterone cream is better than a pill, what the correct

dosage is and the potency difference between synthetic

progesterone and USP progesterone.

Ms. Hett-Dobricky, is the former Administrator of the Rush

Cancer Institute at Rush-Presbyterian-St. Luke's Medical

Center, Chicago Illinois, has lectured at Women's Health

Awareness Seminars on the benefits of natural progesterone

as an alternative to hormone replacement therapy. Ms. Hett-

Dobricky earned her B.S. Political Science from DePaul

University, Chicago, Illinois and her M.B.A in Health Care

Administration from Dominican University, River Forest,

Illinois.

Ms. Hett-Dobricky is available for speaking engagements and

television/radio appearances.
