Welcome back to our hormone mini-series! Following our deep dive into estrogen, Part 2 unravels the mysteries of progesterone – arguably the TRUE 'female hormone,’ crucial for a healthy cycle and beyond.
Unfortunately, most women aren’t making adequate levels of progesterone, or even know that it even exists. It’s time to give it the spotlight it deserves with its key role in your cycle and overall health.
In this episode, we'll dive into:
→ Signs of low progesterone (like PMS, spotting, early miscarriage)
→ The daily habits keeping your progesterone low & how to increase it naturally through nutrition & lifestyle shifts
→ Accurately testing & measuring your hormones
→ Natural progesterone vs. synthetic progestin
→ Progesterone’s vital role in your brain, fertility, metabolism, mood, and overall health
Achieving optimal progesterone isn't just about the ovaries; it's a whole-body effort involving your thyroid, mitochondrial function, nutrition, the delicate balance with other hormones like estrogen and LH, your liver, brain, and adrenal system.
After this episode, you’ll know how progesterone made, used, and how to best support it in your everyday life for fertility, healthy menstrual cycles, mental health, youthfulness, stress management, and more.
