 For example, if a patient is given testosterone, some of that testosterone enters the cell. Increased levels of testosterone may reduce the transcriptional activity of the Androgen Receptor, the nuclear receptor which produces it. One possibility is that with reduced production of testosterone, the Androgen Receptor also reduces transcription in other ways, leading to a reduction in the production of certain families of antimicrobial peptides, which many active Type I nuclear receptors also produce.(({{pubmed>long:17254313}})) Therefore, hormone replacement therapy //may// compromise innate immune function in dose-dependent fashion. Research is needed to validate this theory. For example, if a patient is given testosterone, some of that testosterone enters the cell.

 +Soon after I got sick in '09, after going through what I thought was menopause, a doctor I was seeing got me onto Bio-Identical progesterone and estrogen Creams.  It was call the **Wylie Protocol**.  I began having cycles again like I did when I was in my 20's.
 +
 +When I started the MP about a year ago, I abruptly stopped the progesterone but continued the estrogen.  My cycles dissipated and stopped completely.  I slowly weaned off the estrogen and have not used either for I think about 5 months now.
 +
 +My epiphany is that, If I had not gone onto the Wylie Protocol, and forced my body to cycle, maybe by now, my body would have corrected itself.  Due to my forcing things along I think I may have cost some time in my own healing.
 +
 +I am having hints of PMS symptoms now and then and I do believe I will cycle again, in time, but I think, if I had not used estrogen and progesterone supplementation, my body would have already corrected in this area. 
 +
 +All other areas of my body are showing massive improvements after 10 months except in the female department.  I am hoping this will improve soon also.
 +
 +I write this, not to beat myself up for using assistance but to let anyone else in on my epiphany that is thinking about using hormone replacement therapies.  IMO, our bodies know what to do.  
 +
 +They will return to normal balance even faster if we don't interfere.
