Progesterone Therapy - Balance Hormones, Protect Your Health

Hormonal balance is essential for energy, mood, and long-term wellness. While estrogen gets a lot of attention, progesterone is just as important—not only for managing symptoms but also for protecting your body from estrogen dominance and supporting overall health.

Progesterone plays a critical role in balancing estrogen. Estrogen stimulates cell growth, while progesterone regulates that growth to protect the breasts, uterus, and ovaries from excessive stimulation and cancer risk. Even women who no longer have a uterus still need progesterone, as its benefits extend far beyond reproductive health.

Progesterone levels typically decline before estrogen during perimenopause, often leading to estrogen dominance. Without enough progesterone, many women experience:

• Mood instability, including depression and anxiety
• Short-term memory loss and difficulty concentrating
• Fatigue and low energy levels
• Low sex drive
• Insomnia and poor sleep quality
• Weight gain, especially around the midsection

Restoring healthy progesterone levels can:

• Counterbalance estrogen dominance
• Protect against hormone-related cancers (breast, ovarian, and uterine)
• Reduce inflammation and ease joint discomfort
• Support brain health and cognitive function
• Improve heart health by increasing HDL (good cholesterol)
• Strengthen bones and reduce osteoporosis risk
• Enhance sleep quality and promote relaxation
• Improve mood stability and reduce anxiety
• Support weight management and metabolism

Progesterone is key to maintaining balance, preventing estrogen dominance, and protecting your long-term well-being. Whether you're in perimenopause, menopause, or simply struggling with hormone imbalance, restoring healthy progesterone levels can help you feel your best.
