Additional Information
Progesterone is primarily produced in the ovary just prior to and after ovulation. It is also produced in large quantities by the placenta during pregnancy and in small quantities by the adrenal glands. If you are on bio-identical estrogen, you should probably be on this hormone as well.
It seems to protect against uterine and breast cancers, fibrocystic disease and ovarian cysts. Unfortunately, most U.S. women are prescribed a synthetic horse derived progestin (Provera) which can cause side effects such as bloating, headaches, fatigue, weight gain, and heart disease. Bio-identical progesterone does not have these side effects.
Alleviation of the symptoms caused by decreased production of hormones. (Examples include: sleep problems, mood swings, increased body fat, decreased libido and sexual function, hot flashes, night sweats, anxiety,etc.)
Re-establishing the protective benefits which were originally provided by higher levels of your naturally occurring hormones. (Examples include: bone density, cardiovascular health, immune function, balance, etc.)
Reversal of diseases associated with aging (Examples: osteoporosis, loss of strength, fatigue, exercise intolerance, decreasing muscle mass, mental clarity, etc.) Enhance the enjoyment, sense of well-being, and quality of life over the long-term.
Product and Services
Bio-identical, Hormone Replacement Therapy, Hot Flashes, Menopause, Night Sweats, Mood Swings, Depression Treatment Bio-identical hormones are naturally produced in humans, they cannot be patented regardless of their source. Therefore, large drug companies cannot significantly profit off the use and sale of bio-identical hormones.
The pharmaceutical industry's main hormone drugs are produced by using animal hormones (often collected from pregnant mare urine) to create products that are structurally different than human hormones and yet bind to human receptors – often much too strongly. The drug Premarin binds to human estrogen receptors almost 20 times stronger than natural estrogen.
Mass production of non-human type hormones by drug companies is very profitable despite the serious health issues and side effects caused by them. Conversely, bio-identical hormones (especially well studied testosterone) have not been shown to have any serious side effects. Bio-identical hormone replacement therapy had few powerful advocates until recently when Oprah aired two shows in January of 2009. The quality of life and health benefits of bio-identical hormones are huge for those with deficient levels… which will include most of us eventually!
