I had endometrial hyperplasia due to estrogen dominance and low progesterone from years of synthetic hormones (birth control pills) and what did my doctor prescribe me to “fix” this issue? more birth control. (I threw the Rx in the trash). endometriosis is complex and can occur for a slew of reasons, including liver stagnation, but the most common being hormonal imbalance and high estrogen with not enough progesterone to balance it out. as far as the liver tea, I bought the herbs loose from a local herbalist (amazon works too) and made the blend myself. and as far as the cream, [this](https://www.amazon.com/dp/B01N12IXCM/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_api_gcUiBbKPC0WXB)  is the one I use when Australia isn’t shipping Anna’s to the USA.
