The
benefits of natural progesterone
What
are the benefits of using a usp natural progesterone cream?
Remember:
Progesterone is the “mother of all hormones”. It is
the raw material from which your body makes all other hormones.
It is not simply a sex hormone as it is commonly assumed. If your
body is overloaded with environmental estrogens and cannot produce
enough progesterone to counteract and balance them – dis-ease
is the result.
Progesterone
is not an “alternative remedy”, it’s an essential
need. If your body cannot produce enough progesterone of its own
you need to help it by giving it what it needs to protect your
health.
It
has been shown beyond a shadow of a doubt that supplementing with
usp natural progesterone cream raises progesterone levels and
corrects these unchecked estrogens providing relief to a wide
range of health issues.
Here
is a list of some of the benefits you may experience
once you begin to balance a progesterone deficiency and curb estrogen
dominance.
-
Happiness :) Natural progesterone is a natural antidepressant.
-
You get to rediscover your lost libido. Natural progesterone
restores the sex drive.
-
You get relief from PMS symptoms that you’ve always just
had to “live with.” Natural progesterone is effective
in treating PMS because when estrogen is not balanced by progesterone,
it produces weight gain, headaches, bad temper, chronic fatigue,
breast tenderness and a loss of interest in sex - all of which
are part of the clinically recognized symptoms of pre-menstrual
syndrome.
-
You get relief from menstrual cramping. Many women have found
relief within 20 minutes of rubbing natural progesterone cream
onto their stomachs.
-
You get relief from the normal symptoms of menopause which include
hot flushes, night sweats, insomnia, restlessness, vaginal dryness
and mood swings. Menopause is not an estrogen deficiency disease.
Estrogen levels fall by 40 - 60% during menopause, but progesterone
levels often fall to zero or close to zero, which means the
symptoms experienced by menopausal women are actually the symptoms
of estrogen dominance! The most effective and safe treatment
of menopause symptoms is to balance off the excess estrogens
in the body with natural progesterone.
-
You lose weight. Balancing the excess estrogen in your body
with natural progesterone normalizes blood sugar levels. When
your blood sugar level is too low – you crave food –
usually high-sugar or sweet foods such as chocolate. Anyone
not experienced chocolate cravings during PMS? If you indulge
in these quick sugar fixes your body pours insulin into the
blood to help remove the sugar from the bloodstream …
it then stores it … as fat.
Once insulin removes the sugar from the bloodstream into the
fat cells water fills the space where the sugar was –
causing bloating and cramping. Natural progesterone therefore
helps to reduce symptoms of both bloating and cramping giving
further relief and further … weight loss.
-
Because it normalizes blood sugar levels natural progesterone
also alleviates cravings and binge-eating and therefore further
helps to reduce weight.
-
More weight loss benefits – it is a natural diuretic helping
to release excess water that is being stored in the body.
-
And, one more on the weight loss front - it helps your body
to use fat for energy.
Cancers
When
unopposed estrogen is present in tissues that are sensitive to
hormones such as the breasts, uterus and ovaries, these tissues
can turn cancerous if the unopposed estrogen, is not balanced
off with progesterone.
Natural
Progesterone therefore:
-
Protects
against breast cancer
-
Protects
against ovarian cancer
-
Protects against endometrial cancer
It
also protects against:
-
fibrocystic
breasts
-
uterine fibroids
-
endometriosis
Heart disease
Natural
progesterone protects you against heart disease by:
-
decreasing
the risk of the coronary arteries going into spasm by relaxing
them
-
normalizing blood clotting, which also protects against strokes
-
brings down high blood pressure by acting as a natural diuretic
-
increasing the body’s ability to burn fats for energy
-
protecting the integrity and function of the cell membranes
-
promoting
better sleep and reducing stress
By
contrast and contrary to popular opinion estrogen does not prevent
heart disease. It causes salt and water to be retained and potassium
and magnesium to be lost, thereby increasing blood pressure. Estrogen
promotes fat synthesis and blood clots. Estrogen also accelerates
the aging of collagen, weakening the walls of the arteries.
When
the known actions of progesterone are reviewed, it is clear that
many of its actions are also beneficial to the heart.
Arthritis & osteoporosis
Progesterone,
is an extremely effective anti-inflammatory. This is because it
is the precursor to cortisone, which is an excellent anti-inflammatory.
It therefore:
With
osteoporosis reaching epidemic levels in the West, and the
prediction that 1 in 3 women and 1 in 8 men are likely to get
it, it is not surprising that this has become a growing concern.
Natural
progesterone helps to reverse the ravages of osteoporosis by:
-
Protecting
against bone loss and hence osteoporosis
-
Improving
new bone formation
-
Stimulating
bone building responsible for Osteoporosis Reversal
Findings to support the fact:
Women
using usp natural progesterone cream experienced an average 7
to 8 per cent bone-mass density increase in the first year, 4
to 5 per cent in the second year, and 3 to 4 per cent in the third
year! Untreated women in this age category typically lose 1.5
per cent bone-mass density per year! These results have not been
found with any other form of hormone replacement therapy or dietary
supplementation!
Pregnancy,
infertility and miscarriages
Adequate
levels of progesterone are vital to pregnancy. If you are estrogen
dominant and progesterone deficient, supplementing with natural
progesterone can help you fall pregnant and stay pregnant.
You
could actually be fertile whilst appearing to suffer from infertility!
Why? How?
One
of the most common causes of apparent infertility is a lack of
progesterone during the second half of the month - known as the
defective luteal phase. For pregnancy to occur estrogen first
builds the lining of the uterus. Then after ovulation, progesterone
thickens the uterus lining ready for implantation of the fertilized
egg. Often conception does take place but due to the lack of progesterone
the lining of the uterus is not ready for the egg and miscarriage
occurs as early as the next period. The egg just had nowhere to
implant itself!
Adequate
levels of progesterone are therefore:
Once
pregnant, if progesterone production is too low during the
weeks following fertilization - a miscarriage can result.
Therefore, women having difficulty conceiving or at risk of miscarriage,
should consider using natural progesterone supplementation and
discuss its use with their health care provider.
Another cause of infertility is the fact that some woman do not
ovulate every month. This can be the result of too much estrogen,
particularly the xeno-estrogens such as DDT (pesticides).
So
before you go trying expensive fertilization treatments, see if
the above applies to you and supplement with extra progesterone
in the form of Natural Progesterone.
Depression
Depression
is a huge topic and, as with the other ailments mentioned
already, it is on the increase, with woman suffering more than
men.
Supplementation
with Natural Progesterone helps to alleviate depression.
It
does so by it’s ability to:
Depressed
people have been found to have a higher incidence of low blood
sugar (hypoglycaemia). Woman suffering from PMS and depression
have also been found to have low levels of serotonin in their
blood. Many depressions are triggered by the inability to cope
with stressful situations such as a death or a life threatening
disease.
Progesterone
and depression are linked through progesterone's influence in
the metabolism of serotonin and dopamine, both known to play a
role in depression.
Post
Natal Depression
This
is caused by the sudden drop in progesterone once the placenta
has come away.
Relief
is provided by supplementing with Natural Progesterone for the
first few days after child birth.
There
are many factors involved in treating cases of depression - and
hormonal imbalances should not be overlooked as one of them, since
the balance of our hormones is vital to our mental health
and stability. Very often supplementation with natural progesterone
can help to turn depression around.
Thyroid
Natural
progesterone therapy facilitates normal thyroid hormone action.
Dr.
Lee has successfully treated people with a hypothyroid (under
active thyroid) condition as well as people with hyperthyroidism
(excessive production of the thyroid gland) and Hashimoto's thyroiditis
with natural progesterone therapy.
Low
thyroid activity causes low energy levels, cold intolerance and
weight gain.
Excess thyroid activity induces higher energy levels, feeling
too warm and weight loss.
Estrogen,
progesterone and thyroid hormones are complementary. Estrogen
tells the body to turn food into fat while thyroid and progesterone
hormones tell the body to burn fat for energy. Thyroid hormone
and estrogen balance each other's effects. If there is unopposed
estrogen or estrogen dominance the thyroid may be unable to keep
up.
A
Doctor will often prescribe Thyroxin supplementation, but this
accelerates bone loss which leads to osteoporosis, so a natural
approach, as with natural progesterone, is a far better first
line of defense.
What
else?

a progesterone deficiency through the use of a usp natural progesterone
