"Essential" is an interesting term. HAVING progesterone is essential... supplementing it may not be.
If you aren't experiencing any indications of a lack of it, don't supplement it.

I think i have answered my question!
'progesterone cream is derived from plant sources. The body absorbs it through the skin and metabolizes the progesterone into the hormone your body needs. For men, that usually means it will
boost testosterone levels'.

I use progesterone cream to reduce the likelihood of experiencing estrogen dominance. If it helps with breast growth, so much the better for me.
I agree with AbiDrew. So long as you continue to have good growth and no estrogen dominance symptoms, I don't see it as being essential to add progesterone into your NBE program.

Out of curiosity, where did you find this information from? If progesterone cream was boosting my testosterone levels, I think that would have significantly inhibited my breast growth.

Where ever you got that from, it is total BS. Real progesterone and progestins BOTH DECREASE testosterone levels in both men and women. It is no respecter of genders or sexual organs.
It is unknown exactly how it does this, as progesterone is also a known precursor to the androgens...
It COULD be that it's talking about the "fake" progesterone creams which only contain diosgenin without being synthesized into progesterone, which it would also be false for, as it's been proven that diosgenin is discarded by the liver on first pass and the body is incapable of using it for anything.
