What is Progesterone?

Progesterone is the precursor of the mineralocorticoid aldosterone, and after conversion to 17-hydroxyprogesterone (another natural progestogen) of cortisol and androstenedione. Progesterone is a natural hormone that is produced by the ovaries, adrenal glands, and testes. Progesterone is an important hormone that helps control the production of other hormones such as estrogen and testosterone. As we age, our bodies produce less and less progesterone, making it necessary to supplement. Progesterone Cream helps to achieve a natural balance of all hormones, which can restore your body and mind to a healthy and youthful state.

 

Complications of Low Progesterone Levels

Low progesterone levels may lead to a hormone imbalance, which may cause:

• Menopause and peri-menopause complications

• Lower sex drive
• Unsettled mood
• Headaches or migraines
• Decline in muscle mass
• Painful joints
• Elevated stress levels
• Depression

 

Why Should You Use Progesterone Cream?

Prior to menopause, as ovarian function wanes, cycles frequently occur where a woman does not ovulate (known as an anovulatory cycle). This period leading up to menopause is referred to as perimenopause. Anovulatory cycles that begin in perimenopause can lead to hormone changes that may result in hot flashes, changes in bleeding patterns, PMS symptoms, as well as many other menopausal symptoms.

 

While progesterone levels fall close to zero due to anovulatory cycles at menopause, estrogen levels may only decline to about 40-60% of pre-menopausal levels. Progesterone has a number of important roles relative to menopause. It is the natural balancer to estrogen, as well as being necessary for optimum estrogen utilisation. Research over the years has also revealed other vital roles of progesterone on the heart, blood vessels, nerves and brain. Many women find that supplementing with progesterone allows them to achieve a balance once again.
