Calm Your Mind & Body With Progesterone

Ladies… are you experiencing anxiety, insomnia, PMS or infertility? It could be that you’re low in progesterone.

 

You hear a lot about testosterone and estrogen… but PROGESTERONE is often forgotten and super important! Progesterone is my favourite hormone, so much that I call it the “Serenity Hormone” for it’s calming effect on our brains, nervous system and uterus.

Too many women are being prescribed:

-ANTI-DEPRESSANTS for anxiety

-SEDATIVES for insomnia

-BIRTH CONTROL for PMS

-IVF for infertility

In some of these cases, progesterone levels aren’t even looked at! Boosting progesterone for someone in the less-than-optimal range will make them feel so much better.

 

WHAT PROGESTERONE DOES:

-Decreases menstrual cramps

-Anti-aging for skin’s elasticity & circulation

-Helps you become & stay pregnant

-Protects ovaries from PCOS

-Regulates menstrual cycles

-Calms anxiety

-Improves sleep quality

-Protects brain against concussion & brain injuries

-Protects brain against aging for memory & focus

 

 

HOW I HELP PATIENTS WITH LOW PROGESTERONE:

-Herbal supplements (like Vitex agnus)

-Herbal creams (like Wild Yam)

-Cortisol-lowering agents (like Ashwaghanda)

-Stress reduction (like meditation)

-Bioidentical Hormone Replacement Therapy (creams or vaginal suppositories)

 

MAJOR SIDE-NOTE: Synthetic progestins in your birth control pill DO NOT have the same anti-anxiety and cognition benefits that bioidentical progesterone does!
