How do I compare phytoestrogen cream with progesterone cream?
271480
Phytoestrogen is giving you estrogen in the form of phytoestrogen and progesterone cream is giving you progesterone. Most of us are estrogen dominant (including men but that is a whole other issue!) so we need the progesterone cream to balance out the overload of estrogens in our bodies and our environment. Hope this helps. kemzs@yahoo.com

I believe you should, use progesterone along with the estrogen, no matter where you put it.

Hi there. I apologize for the delay in answering. We wanted to make sure we got our specialist in on this conversation because your reaction is something we've never heard of in our 15 years carrying Balanced Woman. Sometimes, when people have extreme estrogen dominance, their symptoms can be exacerbated when they first start using progesterone cream. However, hormone balance is delicate. Our medical specialist agreed that your complications are well beyond our scope and encourages you either read the book, Hormone Balance Made Simple by Dr. John Lee or see a physician. We really appreciate you keeping us updated and hope very much that you continue to do so. JackiePure Health Trends Hi there. I apologize for the delay in answering.

short answer is no. Long answer, eventually if you get the dose right. It takes a while (like a month) for it to build up in your system and begin working like with any herbal therapy. And it is not nearly as strong or harsh as REAL progesterone.

24 mgs of Natural Progesterone Cream in each application as per Dr. John Lee's specifications. There is 950 mgs per tube.

Once you start using it, you will get a feel for how much and when to use it. I use this and the progesterone cream at the same time and apply to opposite sides of the body. (Right tummy-left tummy, right forearm-left forearm, .... then switch sides every month.) I skip both for the first week ( 1st of month to about 5th, 6th or 7th - whichever is convenient or needed), then use both the rest of the month. I usually put it on in the morning after my shower. If menopause symptoms start showing up, I add a small dose before bed for a few days.

Yes, I believe it does. I have been using natural, bio-identical progesterone and estriol creams for many years, beginning with those made at a compounding pharmacy. The products here seem to be equally effective.

It is meant to be used for only 14 days of the month for medical reasons. Women naturally increase their level of progesterone 14 days of the month when they are menstruating. So women who are in menopause have to follow the same regimen. There could be side effects to using it everyday - I'd recommend asking the manufacturer. I use my progesterone and estriol creams on the 1st through the 14th of every month, and then just the estriol cream on the 15th to the last day of the month. I apply the estriol every morning and the progesterone at night (on days 1-14). Progesterone can help you sleep. Been using the products for almost one year and am seeing good results.

I personally don't use the progesterone cream on my wrinkles...I do use the estrogen cream they make on my wrinkles. I put a little of it all over my face and it seems to make my face plumper and my wrinkles are not as noticeable..at least not to me. Some people probably wouldn't agree with that, but my mother never used any estrogen replacement, natural or unatural and now she wishes she had...she says that's when she really started getting alot of wrinkles. So, I figure it can't hurt to put some of that estrogen on my face and I may try the progesterone too. Didn't realize it was also for wrinkles!! It may be helping my wrinkles because I sleep better..I can use all the help I can get!!

Phytoprolief (estrogens & progesterones) has a green label, and prolief (progesterones only) has the blue label.

All they say on their website is that it is a plant based estrogen. Check it out here -https://www.smokymountainnaturals.com/products/all-products/for-women/all-products/4-creams-lotions/P18-natural-estriol-creamSorry that I cant be of more help. Possibly you could call them to find out? If you do please post the information for everyones benefit.

They are formulated to work TOGETHER.. So the answer is both. You can't use Estrogen without Progesterone.. Not intended to work by themselves. Note: use estrogen cream all month, progesterone cream two weeks only in a month. Hope this helps :)

i agree with the other responder that a doctor consult would be best, although imo you might not need progesterone if you do not have a uterus. i did not know there were other formulations so regrettably i cannot give a great answer.

I'm pretty sure they are the same, however the company has put out a new smaller capsule that I believe the owner told me was for women. The ingredients are identical on the label though, aren't they. It works just fine for me.

I had menopause that made it difficult for me to function! My regular obgyn knew of these kinds of products but not enough to feel comfortable prescribing. So, I found an excellent doctor who is an MD but also a PhD who did all of the test. Initially Dr Blackmun gave me bio-identical prescription cremes that I had filled at a special pharmacy. These initial formulas were much stronger than these over the counter products. But after about a year, I "graduated" to these over the counter products and they work for me. BUT, I would really want to know my hormone levels before using products. these are very powerful and do work! Good luck!!
