Hello NBE
At the point of folk saying you dont know what you are talking about well I will post an answer from google.
If you ask google a question AI gives you an answer, ok some of it I do not agree with but more often or not its right.
I asked how many popele have died using progesterone directly on their nipple and breast's the answer was really amazing so I copied it and put it on here.
AI Results Progesterone
There is no evidence that applying progesterone cream to the breasts causes breast cancer. In fact, studies suggest that natural progesterone may even have a protective effect against breast cancer. While synthetic progestins, like those found in some forms of hormone replacement therapy (HRT), have been linked to an increased risk of breast cancer, natural progesterone appears to be associated with a lower risk.
Now I asked the question about Estrogen to the breasts and this was the response
AI Results Estrogen
There's no definitive number of people who have developed breast cancer directly from applying estrogen cream to their breasts. However, studies have shown that topical estrogen creams, like those used for vaginal dryness, do not appear to increase the risk of breast cancer. Conversely, long-term use of systemic estrogen-only or combined estrogen and progestogen hormone replacement therapy (HRT) has been associated with a slightly increased risk of breast cancer.

Now I am not a doctor or a person who would say this is fact, so form your own opinion, do as you think is best for you.
One thing I have learnt on here, some doctors are living in a world where if they do not know the answer, they err on the side of caution or make it up as they go along.
