What is Progesterone Deficiency?

Progesterone deficiency tends to occur as you age. Progesterone cream is recommended for individuals who are experiencing a hormone imbalance, which may lead to irregular and uncomfortable premenstrual and menopause symptoms, low testosterone levels, and fatigue due to illnesses caused by a stressed immune system.

 

Progesterone and Menopause

Menopause is a normal condition that describes any change a woman experiences before or after menstruating—ending her reproductive period. Menopause can also be described as the cessation of ovulations, which causes a hormone imbalance, thus leading to symptoms associated with menopause. Menopause usually occurs in women between ages 45 and 55. It is preceded by a variable period of time called pre-or peri-menopause.

 

Certain factors can affect the age of natural menopause, such as smoking and genetics. Smokers often experience menopause about 2 years earlier than non-smokers. Menopause genetics is the likelihood of starting menopause around the same time as your earlier family members. Early menopause is before age 40 and late menopause is after age 55.
