Inconvenient PMS symptoms are often avoidable with diet, lifestyle, and other methods to manage hormones and reactions inside the body. You don’t have to accept them as normal and suffer. There are things you can do to take control of your health and your cycle. One of these methods is using a high-quality progesterone cream to manage hormone fluctuations and prevent undesirable symptoms.
DO YOU HAVE LOW PROGESTERONE?
There are several signs you should watch out for that indicate that your progesterone levels are low. Whenever progesterone is low, you will experience worsened symptoms of PMS such as bloating, cramping, fatigue, breast tenderness, and lower back pain.
HOW TO USE PREOGESTERONE CREAM
For PMS Prevention & Treatment: Use one-quarter teaspoon of cream at night or twice a day, starting 2 weeks prior to when you anticipate the beginning of your period. You could also begin use when PMS symptoms begin. However, with good timing and regular use you can ultimately avoid the symptoms all together.
Discontinue use when your period begins. Repeat monthly or as needed.
WHY STOP USE DURING YOUR PERIOD
Once you start your period, progesterone levels in the body tend to rise to normal levels. Therefore, you should stop applying the cream during this time to avoid having excess progesterone in the body.
WHERE TO APPLY
Apply the cream to thin-skinned area such as the chest, neck, palms of hands, inner arms and face. You should apply the progesterone cream to a single area of skin, where blood vessels are close to the surface. Since progesterone cream is fat-soluble, it is easily absorbed through the skin and blood vessels.
Note: You should apply the cream to these areas on a rotating basis to prevent the skin from becoming irritated following repeated application of the cream.
WHY IT WORKS
Progesterone has a direct connection with the neurotransmitters in the brain. Therefore, progesterone cream is also effective for treating the mental symptoms of PMS.
Progesterone cream works on the central nervous system to improve cognitive function. It also works as mood stabilizer.
Progesterone cream also has capability to restrict the inflammation or swelling associated with PMS, as it decreases the accumulation of water or fluid in the extracellular space.
Progesterone also works as a pain reliever and muscle relaxant. It therefore helps to relieve stomach cramps, as it decreases the painful contractions of the uterus.
OTHER CAUSES FOR LOW PROGESTERONE
There are other possible causes of low progesterone levels. Aside from PMS, there are a couple of other possible causes of low progesterone levels, which may result in PSM-like symptoms. These are:
Stress: Emotional and physical stress converts progesterone into cortisol, which causes a deficiency of the hormone and the appearance of PMS-like symptoms.
Hypothyroidism: This condition alters the synthesis of progesterone and its secretion into the blood, causing a deficiency.
