What is the purpose of Progesterone cream?
Progesterone helps maintain the uterine wall lining. Many times, people spontaneously miscarry because their progesterone is too low. It is used to build up the uterine wall lining for implantation of the embryo. Many people take progesterone because their levels are simply too low. This is due to something called estrogen dominance, and a lot of meat and plastics and environmental factors can cause you to have too much estrogen and not enough progesterone. To apply progesterone cream, alternate the areas that you put it, and apply to soft tissues (i.e., palms of hands, soles of feet, inner thighs, inner arms, abdomen). This ensures even distribution throughout the body. Sometimes women who have PCOS (polycystic ovarian syndrome) are told to take this, and some other women take it as an alternative to Hormone Replacement Therapy.
