What is Natural Progesterone Gel?
Supplement Spot's Natural Progesterone Gel provides a revolutionary delivery system. The progesterone is suspended in the gel and will not settle to the bottom of the bottle. When mixed with water, the compound TEA forms a gel that is 99.9% water. When the water evaporates, you are left with little else besides the active ingredient. It absorbs immediately into the skin without the waxy residue characteristic of creams, making it ideal for men and women with oily skin.
We also offer other progesterone creams, such as Natural Progesterone Cream and Healthy Progesterone Cream, for those wanting a more emollient USP Progesterone skin cream.
What does Natural Progesterone Gel do?
Women throughout the world are becoming better acquainted with the health benefits of natural progesterone. Natural Progesterone reduces the symptoms and discomfort of Menopause, PMS and Premenopause.
What is Menopause?
Menopause is normally defined as the end of menstrual cycles. The unpleasant symptoms of menopause that some women suffer, such as hot flashes, vaginal dryness, and mood swings are peculiar to western industrialized societies. Menopause is often associated with the end of a woman’s sexuality and the beginning of old age, but it doesn’t have to be that way!
What does Progesterone have to do with Menopause?
A woman's ovaries make two hormones: estrogen and progesterone. When these hormones are out of balance, hormone related illnesses can emerge. Due to ovulatory cycles, progesterone levels typically decline before menopause starts, which is in turn followed by a decline in estrogen. Progesterone production tends to fall to almost zero while estrogen declines to about 40% to 50%. This situation leads to an imbalance between estrogen and progesterone causing an increase in estrogen activity, something now described as estrogen dominance.
What is Estrogen Dominance?
It is clear that estrogen, when unopposed or unbalanced by progesterone, is not something to be desired. Stated differently, many of estrogen's undesirable side effects are effectively prevented by progesterone. Dr. Lee has named this syndrome Estrogen Dominance.
Progesterone Supplementation
Many women find that by supplementing their hormone production with natural progesterone they will reduce many or most of their menopausal symptoms. The presence of progesterone in the body sensitizes estrogen receptor sites thus enabling estrogen to work more efficiently. Progesterone is a precursor to other hormones in the body including estrogen, testosterone, and especially the corticosteroids.
Progesterone is one of two main hormones, the other being estrogen, made by the ovaries of menstruating women. Progesterone is also made in smaller amounts by the adrenal glands in both sexes and by the testes in males. When a woman's monthly cycle is functioning correctly, estrogen is the dominant hormone during the first two weeks of the menstrual cycle. In response to ovulation, progesterone assumes dominance for the final two weeks of the month. When the pituitary gland in the brain sends a message to the ovaries to stop production of progesterone, the menstrual cycle begins within 48 hours of this message.
Every person is different. That’s why we recommend testing your hormone levels to find out how much progesterone supplementation your body needs. We offer home-testing kits for 2 Hormones or 4 Hormones of your choice, so that you can feel safe in administering the correct amount of progesterone for your specific needs. Additional hormones can be added to the test for an extra fee payable directly to the testing lab.
Supplement Spot’s Natural Progesterone Gel offers safe, gentle relief from your Estrogen Dominance symptoms while moisturizing your skin with natural oils. With our 30-day money back guarantee, you have nothing to lose but your pain and discomfort!
