Is there real progesterone in this? I read yam and soy sources are not useful.

Ellie, I'm concerned about this, too. I read that both wild yam and soy are actually ESTROGEN sources, and so wouldn't they counteract the progesterone? Anybody?

It's all natural and does not have real progesterone. It does have yam and soy sources in it. I've been using it for almost 2 years now and the benefits I get from it are amazing. I feel great and there are no side effects unlike when you use real prgesterone cream.

All natural progesterone today is made from soy. Yes, it is amazing stuff. I have used it for several years mainly for bone and joint protection, and have no problems with it. Read Dr. John Lee's book, "What your doctor didn't tell you about menopause".This book will answer all your questions.

No, there is not. This is an herbal based cream. These particular herbs traditionally have been found to bring relief to suffers of menopause symptoms. Well, if it is only psychological, it works for me.

Progesterone is not one of this product's listed ingredients. It's a sunscreen, not a hormone cream.

I checked the ingredients and did not see soy listed as one. This cream is fantastic, and it smells divine!

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.

The key ingredients in PhytoProlief are chaste tree, dong quai, evening primrose oil, red clover, alfalfa, licorice, ginseng and black cohosh extracts. I took this product for a long time and then found out my progesterone level was sky high. This product should be taken under the supervision of a doctor's care.

No, there are no hormones in the product. That's the reason I tried it the first time. In fact the instructions in the diet allow for more than 500 calories if you don't mind losing the weight slower. I did about 1000-1200 a day and lost 18 pounds in three weeks. The product is homeopathic with some herbal components which I don't recall right now. Definitely nothing dangerous though. I really found it the best diet I've tried in years.

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

According to my wife, she has read the ingredients at their website and it does not have soy. You might want to contact the manufacture so they know to add that, it might be an oversight on there part. Pete

Can't have soy or we wouldn't have used it. We're back on Interfase+ it's cheaper. Neprinol is great stuff just too expensive. I've doubled up on Interfase + and have less pain.

I just read the label (twice!) on my Progesta-Care Plus (with phytoestrogens), which is slightly different from regular Progesta-Care, and neither soy nor yams is listed as an ingredient. I've pasted the ingredient information from regular Progesta-Care as follows: Ingredients: Purified water, aloe barbadensis, glycerin, Helianthus annuus (sunflower) seed oil, Butyrospermum parkii (shea butter), stearic acid, glyceryl stearate, progesterone USP, stearyl alcohol, caprylic/capric triglyceride, Isopropyl palmitate, phenoxyethanol and caprylyl glycol, Elaeis guineensis (palm) oil (and) tocotrienols (and) tocopherol, Oenothera biennis (evening primrose) oil, lecithin, sodium hyaluronate (HA), methylsulfonylmethane (MSM), potassium sorbate, allantoin, Arctium lappa (burdock) root extract, Vitis vinifera (grape) seed extract, and sodium bicarbonate. Ingredient list for Progesta-Care Plus: Ingredients: Purified & deionized water, glycerin, aloe vera gel, shea butter, caprylic/capric triglycerides, sunflower seed oil, stearic acid, glyceryl monolaurate, natural progesterone USP, glyceryl stearate, stearyl alcohol, sodium hyaluronate, croton lechleri extract (sange de grado), evening primrose oil, sodium bicarbonate, black cohosh, sodium citrate, allantoin, potassium sorbate, lecithin, saw palmetto, MSM (methylsulfonylmethane), grape seed extract, red clover flower extract, tocotrienol (super vitamin E), chaste tree berry extract, dong quai extract, and damiana extract. Hope this helps. Best of luck!

I would ask my doctor that knows about hormone cremes this question! You might need two different kinds. One for estrogen and one for progesterone. I found a doctor who was head of the alternative medicine program at the National Institutes of Health because my personal doctor was honest and told me she did not know how to prescribe or use skin hormones. There was also a great book that was helpful. I don't have the exact name but it was something ilk "What you Doctor May Not Tell You About Menopause" written by a doctor. The more information you get, the better. It took me a little bit of research t find the right doctor, but so worth it!! This creme has really helped me!!! Good luck!

Isocort is plant derived cortisol. Gin Yam is DHEA. I'm not a pharmacist but I don't think these two are the same.

It's all natural herbs, so that tells me no. Also caffeine can hinder fertility, so that also leads me to say no. It is also not anywhere on the contents of the bag

Too many to list all but I'll give you the 1st seven since that contains the most;Water,sunflower seed oil, glyceral stearate, sweet almond oil, soybean oil, glycerin, cetearyl alcohol,progerterone USP then there's lots of other essential oils and stuff. I believe I asked Arbonne about the progerterone and it's less than 5% or grams . Best bet is to contact a representative, the one in Maui is Maureen 808-280-6945 or 732-463-6380 box 190. Aloha

I don't recommend using progestin ever. Only bio-identical hormones. Getting hormone levels tested first would be a good idea, not necessary if you know that you need the hormone. Always good to get expert advice first.

No not at all. I chose it because I didnt have it in there. It really didnt work for me . So my doctor told me to get black cohosh extract. And it works good for me. No estrogen in it either
