Guest guest Posted February 19, 2005 Report Share Posted February 19, 2005 Hi all, A woman's body produces plenty of progesterone during the child bearing years. A natural menstrual cycle depends on a fine balance of both progesterone and estrogen and we have huge amounts during pregnancy. The first signal of the onset of perimenopause (the many years that lead to actual menopause) is a drop in progesterone - not estrogen as is commonly believed. Your body continues to produce estrogen throughout your entire life, but not so for progesterone. It continues to drop, reaching levels as low as those in men. Below are the many important functions of progesterone, which is replentished by using USP micronized Progesterone Cream. I hope you find it helpful, Michelle P.S. No, I don't represent progesterone cream or any other products through MLM or network marketing! Just swear by the stuff! The functions of Progesterone include: To prepare the uterus for pregnancy Is a precursor of other sex hormones, including estrogen and testosterone Maintains secretary endometrium (uterine lining) Protects against fibrocystic breasts Is a natural diuretic Helps use fat for energy Functions as a natural antidepressant Helps thyroid hormone action Normalizes blood clotting Restores sex drive Helps normalize blood sugar levels Normalizes zinc and copper levels Restores proper cell oxygen levels Has a thermogenic (temperature-raising) effect Protects against endometrial cancer Helps protect against breast cancer Builds bone and is protective against osteoporosis Is a precursor of cortisone synthesis by adrenal cortex Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
