Use Natural Progesterone and natural progesterone replacement therapy - Make Your Symptoms GO AWAY!
Natural progesterone is typically produced by a woman's ovaries in the normal monthly menstrual cycle - assuming there's ovulation. Natural progesterone's presence in the body is important for many reasons.
Natural progesterone balances - and controls - estrogen and its actions. Estrogen promotes cell growth, and natural progesterone keeps that growth from going farther than is either necessary or healthy.
If you don't have a suitable amount of natural progesterone in your body, your estrogen is NOT balanced, and NOT controlled. And unbalanced estrogen is NOT HEALTHY and causes symptoms of hormone imbalance!
Here's a list of symptoms that natural progesterone can be used for to help support women's health:
• irregular menstrual flow,
• cramping,
• bloating,
• natural antidepressant,
• irritability,
• migraine headaches,
• insomnia,
• hot flashes,
• night sweats,
• vaginal dryness,
• infertility,
• incontinence,
• endometriosis,
• restores sex drive,
• normalizes blood sugar levels,
• natural diuretic,
• normalizes blood clotting,
• uses fat for energy,
• protects against breast fibrocysts,
• prevents migraines,
• thyroid imbalance,
• important for the survival and development of the embryo,
• is the primary precursor for adrenal corticosteroids, estrogens (estriol, estrone and estradiol) and testosterone produced by testes in males
It's worth noting that in the third trimester of pregnancy, the female's placenta produces 300-400mg of natural progesterone PER DAY! Since progesterone is a natural anti-depressant, it comes as no surprise that new mothers suffer the "post-partum depression" when their major source of natural progesterone, the placenta, is lost when the baby is born!
But, as outlined in the "Hormone Imbalance" section of this site, natural progesterone will not be produced by the body with missed ovulations or after menopause. So natural progesterone supplementation or natural progesterone cream is a key element in a woman's health and well-being.
The "Risk of HRT" section on this site talks about the problems of synthetic hormones and how patented synthetic progesterones (called "progestins") present problems for women.

So how do you add natural progesterone to your system? How does natural progesterone replacement therapy work?
According to Dr. John Lee, the easiest and most effective form to use is the natural progesterone CREAM. All you do is apply it directly to your skin, and from there it's absorbed into the underlying fat layer. Then, the natural progesterone can be absorbed into the blood stream as the body needs it.
The same cannot be said for other forms of natural progesterone supplements taken by mouth. The levels of natural progesterone in the blood are not consistent and the liver will process the natural progesterone out of your system.
Medical sources say that as much as 95% of any natural progesterone taken by mouth is processed out of your system by the liver, and it has little if any effect at all in the body - where you wanted it! Besides being healthy, natural progesterone has a number of cosmetic advantages by way of producing softer,
younger looking skin
- and how bad can THAT be?!
Remember Hormone IMBALANCE causes MENOPAUSE SYMPTOMS!
It's time YOU bring your body into balance!
To balance your hormones, natural progesterone and progesterone cream is what you need to safely reduce or eliminate menopause symptoms.
If women stay "hormone balanced" and take care of themselves by having a balanced diet
and exercise,
their aging process will happen later in life and will be more gradual and less debilitating.
Balance your hormones yourself with natural progesterone replacement therapy.
How much natural progesterone or progesterone cream should you use?
Most natural progesterone supplement packaging gives specific usage instructions, but using 1/4 teaspoon once or twice a day for 2-3 weeks a month will simulate normal progesterone presence in the body.
Natural progesterone creams that you should use should contain 2-3% USP Progesterone, or 450-500mg per ounce of cream. Remember, you're using natural progesterone replacement therapy to re-create what your body would produce were it ovulating, and you "time" the usage to mimic its appearance in your regular monthly menstrual cycle.
Check out recommended suppliers of natural progesterone in the
natural progesterone cream sources section.
During menopause, the estrogen levels in the body drop 40 to 60 percent while natural progesterone levels drop to nearly zero.
It is possible that fluctuating estrogen levels in the body - sometimes too high, sometimes too low - result in a temporary estrogen deficiency that causes menopausal symptoms such as hot flashes, night sweats, memory lapses, osteoporosis, wrinkly skin,
and vaginal dryness.

natural estrogen sources here.
Another approach is to test your own natural progesterone and estrogen levels first. Your hormone levels can best be determined with a saliva test.
This allows you to determine exactly how deficient in natural progesterone (or estrogen) you are before beginning supplementation, or what your levels are as you proceed with supplementation.

hormone testing section here.
It is important to restore your hormone levels in the body because doing so will give you improved health and vitality.
Lifestyle changes that correct hormone imbalance!
• Improve your diet
by including protein (organic meats and poultry that contain no growth hormones and antibiotics, plus eat cold-water fish - not farmed raised - 3 times a week), whole grains, fruits and vegetables. A healthy diet will improve your long term health, will certainly reduce your hormone imbalance symptoms and will allow you to live longer.
• Increase your physical activity
by exercising. Women who exercise will begin sleeping better, having more energy, looking younger, and bones and connective tissues will be stronger.
You will start losing weight and maintaining a more positive outlook. The list goes on! The key is to make exercise a lifelong habit. With exercise, women have better sex lives and reduce hormone imbalance. Exercise is known to improve your mood, and it also boosts your immune system, which helps protect you from infectious diseases.
• Reduce stress in your daily life!
Stress stimulates your body to produce more cortisol, androgens, epinephrine and adrenaline. According to Dr. John R. Lee, "Cortisol inhibits progesterone production by the ovaries. Also with stress, your body will produce high levels of cortisol that can significantly reduce progesterone production and cause estrogen dominance."
Too much cortisol in the body reduces progesterone production, causes diabetes, high blood pressure, weakens your immune system, leads to overeating, and eliminates essential minerals and vitamins in the body.
