Estrogen alters the cell membrane function such that sodium and water floods into body cells, while potassium and magnesium are lost from the cells. This will result in intracellular edema or bloating and water retention. Progesterone works to protect the cell membranes from estrogen-created problems.

Stress is a major factory in causing anovulatory cycles. Lack of progesterone production interferes with adrenal production by which one normally responds to stress. To prevent anovulatory cycles normal levels of progesteorne must be maintained in the woman’s blood stream.

Progesterone levels are rarely, if ever, measured. Therefore, most doctors are unaware of the fact that a menstruating woman may be deficient in progesterone. Complaining of symptoms, doctors simply revert to what they have erroneously been taught. They prescribe estrogen which, in effect, increases progesterone deficiency and  simply exacerbates the problem.

Progesterone is the major precursor of the important hormones aldosterone and cortisol. These corticosteroids are not made by any other hormone pathway. They are responsible for mineral balance, sugar control, and emotional stress. Natural progesterone cream will effectively resolve these problems.

Progesterone is a natural diuretic, promotes thermogenesis–burning fat for energy, acts as a natural antidepressant, helps keep blood sugar levels normal, and prevents blood clotting. To maintain a healthy, balanced body, all women beyond the age of 30 need naturual progesterone. 

With the rise in estrogen levels women become more acutely aware of their environment and their own physical and psychological symptoms. The best way to off-set this sensitively is to increase progesterone levels. Most convienient, and cost effective method for achieving this is the use of natural progesterone cream.

PMS symptoms increase in number and intensity after the age of thirty, especially due to the birth of a second child. High levels of stress, birth control or a tubal ligation, poor diet and exercise add to existing symptoms and cause symptoms previously not experienced to onset. Age is a major factor in PMS.

PMS can be caused by even the slightest shift in the complex relationship between the pituitary, ovaries, thyroid, and adrenal glands, but nothing effects PMS so primary and directly as the imbalance for women with PMS as elevated estrogen and reduced progesterone.

Liver is responsible for breaking down and eliminating estrogen in the woman’s body. Vitamin B6 is essential to improve the speed and efficiency at which the liver works. Unless the liver is functioning at peak efficiency, existing PMS symptoms will worsen, and previously unexperienced PMS symptoms will onset. Vitamin B6 is absolutely necessary to prevent PMS.

The primary imbalance for women with PMS is elevated estrogen and reduced progesterone. This is especially true during the five to seven days after ovulation and before menstruation. Elevated estrogen levels aggravite existing PMS symptoms, and cause the onset of symptoms previously not experienced. Natural progesterone is the best way to reduce the imbalance and prevent PMS symptoms.
