What are the recommended doses of natural progesterone cream?
• PMS– use 1-2 oz. of cream in a ten (10) day period ending just before menses. • Peri-menopause– 1-2 ounces of cream from day 12 to 26 each month. • Post-menopause– 1-2 ounces applied 23-25 days per month, leaving 5-6 days per month without using hormones. For women who experience hot flashes or other menopausal symptoms during the days off natural progesterone reduce the time off to 2-3 days for several months and then experiment with extending the days off back to 5 or 6.
