Natural Hormone Replacement Therapy

Progestesterone Bio-Identical Cream

Although called natural progesterone, bio-identical progesterone cream is produced in a laboratory from a plant compound and has the same chemical structure as natural progesterone.

It is used as a natural hormone replacement therapy as it restores the progesterone level so that it is in balance with a woman’s estrogen level without causing the side effects of synthetic progesterone.

The progesterone cream is applied to the skin where there is a good source of capillary blood flow and absorbed transdermally ie through the skin. From there it moves under the fat layer and reaches the blood stream. The area of application has to be rotated as to avoid saturation of the skin.

Some women may see menopause as a curse while others see it as a blessing. In fact menopause is another cycle of life that all women must go through as their reproductive process shuts down. A woman’s cycle of life begins in infancy advances onto childhood until it reaches puberty. So the menopause is just another phase of her life.

The hormone changes that occur at menopause can cause menopausal symptoms including:

•  changes in menstrual periods 
•  hot flashes and night sweats
•  vaginal dryness
•  forgetfulness
•  moodiness
•  changes in urination
•  weight gain or weight shift
•  palpitations or rapid heart rate
•  joint pain
•  loss of bone density
•  skin, hair and eye changes
•  other peri menopausal symptoms

These symptoms are often caused by changes in the woman’s hormonal levels ie estrogen and progesterone and sometimes testosterone. The use of a natural hormone replacement therapy using progesterone cream may help relieve these symptoms.

When her hormones return to the right level and are balanced, the woman experiences:

•  a calming effect
•  less migraines
•  enhanced moods
•  regulated fluid balance
•  normalised sleep
•  reduced hot flashes and night sweats
•  increased sex drive
•  more energy which helps burn more fat
•  stabilised blood sugar
•  balanced mineral and thyroid function
•  decreased risk of endometrial cancer
•  protection against breast cancer, fibrocystic breast and osteoporosis

Will the Progesterone Cream benefit all Women?

Progesterone Cream helps women who have low progesterone levels. However, all women are different and sometimes, as progesterone works with the two other hormones, estrogen and testosterone to create hormonal balance, the levels of these hormones may need to be tweaked as well.
All in all, however, progesterone cream as part of a natural hormone replacement therapy, can make the menopausal transition a much much easier and more pleasant experience.
