To each their own, i guess. Myself, i find it more comfortable tucking all the time, and it has the advantage of allowing me to wear whatever clothes i want.
I think "fast" is rather relative. Unless you are going to have your hormone levels checked, it's somewhat hard to know if you are taking too much.
If your boobs are pointy, it's a sign that you are estrogen dominant and need to either cut back on estrogen or use more progesterone. Progesterone in almost any quantity is safe, but that's not the case for estrogen. There are definite risks of taking too much estrogen - the big ones being 'clotting' and increased risk of cancer later on.
I wince a bit when i see the quantities of PM some here are taking. I certainly don't want growth badly enough to take 2000-4000 mg/day, and have set my limit at 1000 mg/day for when i do start on PM, and i will be using progresterone cream at the same time (don't know how much yet).
To answer your question, i guess you'd need to know how much PM is in your PM cream and calculate how much PM are you getting daily. Also, what estrogens are in the other cream and in what quantity? Just add them up, if you can, and that should give you a comparison. There seems to be a consensus on this board to not exceed 4000 mg/day of PM. Personally, i would not go anywhere near that.
Hopefully Lotus, the encyclopedia, will chime in on this...
