Hi, wanted to ask some stuff regarding progesterone cream.

I've been on estrogen injections for a couple of months now, and hrt for 2 years, and I'm finally trying to move progesterone into my plan. The issue is I'm doing it all diy, and I've been unable to source micronized progesterone to put under the tongue. (If anyone could point me in the direction of some, that'd be greatly appreciated.)
I'm aware of administering rectally, but I'd prefer not to for personal reasons, although it would work if needed.

Now as of right now, I have a lotion can that has 20mg progesterone from wild yams per pump, and I want to use this to get started on progesterone to capitalize off of a receptor reset that may start another period of growth.

However, I have absolutely no idea where the best place to put the cream on is, or what the best period to use with it is.
All the methods of doing it I've heard are as follows:

1. In rotating low-fat sites around the body, but never the breast
2. On the upper breast only
3. Everywhere on the breast except the aerola
4. Everywhere on the breast

And as for periods to use, I've heard:

1. 16 days on, 14 off (Monthly)
2. 6 days on, 1 day off (Weekly)
3. Continuous

And as for dosing, that seems to be one pump per day, but I've also heard of someone putting two 20mg pumps on both breasts (4 pumps total) per day. 


The main confusion comes from whether it's wise to put progesterone cream on your aerola. One piece of info says doing so can stunt overall breast growth, while another says it can promote growth regardless of the aerola and not impinge on the rest of the breast. https://www.breastnexum.com/showthread.php?tid=30982

Dosing is yet another question when applied directly to the chest due to the possible known risk in breast cancer from the (if I remember correctly) lymphatic system being unable to drain excess progesterone out.

However, applying to the breast seems like it would give more progesterone to the place that matters, the breast tissue. Does that mean an adequate cream dosage to the breast would result in the same level of progesterone in breast tissue as a natal woman?

I'm currently experimenting with slathering all over the breast, and doing one pump total per day. I'm observing my feelings, and also watching my breasts. 

Right now with this alone, I feel like I'm going through puberty again. I'm emotional and moody and tired and all over the place. Nipples do feel a bit more sensitive 24/7 and are a good bit bigger. My aerola are slightly bigger. My chest feels firmer and has a deeper soreness that feels less like before, which is to say a pinching feeling that quickly left, and more like a deep soreness and ache that will persist for a bit after I grab it and appear during the day.

Has anyone had experience using progesterone cream as their only progesterone source?

Following, as I have these questions, and more!

I've gotten 200 mg/pump Progesterone cream from Otokonoko Pharmacy, and have tried using it daily as one pump over each entire breast for a few weeks, or as a single pump spread just on nipples/areaolas areas for a few weeks.  I am also taking 200 mg P rectally daily.

While my breasts have slightly been getting larger, not sure if either type of P cream application or the rectal dosage is doing anything, and am starting to believe that it's just my Monotherapy E (3.2 mg/week of subq EEn) doing anything.

While I have gotten fairly large nipples (that seem to normally be engorged lately), my areolas after 4 years on MTF HRT are still male-sized, and looking for something to get them to enlarge.

I've tried Royal Jelly some recently, and while it does make and keep my nipples hard and itchy...I'm kinda thinking it's not so much growth, as a reaction (allergic?) to the jelly, as I got some on my breast skin outside of the nipple/areola area, and it got a rash-looking area, so have stopped it for a few days and will restart and try it more later.
