Progesterone supports the uterine lining and thyroid hormone regulation. It also supports mineral balance in the body, stimulates GABA receptors to calm the nervous system and supports glucocorticoid sensitivity. Think of it as the safety hormone. We like to call it the snuggle hormone.

Yes, you can, however it is important to keep an eye on your pregnanediol levels with a DUTCH test to make sure you are not over supplementing and putting a burden on your liver.

Yes you can, however it is important to manage your symptoms when doing so. Over supplementing with Black Cohosh may lead to depression and a lack of motivation.

It is best utilised with the testosterone and insulin regulation precursors. It is best to try this one first if you are taking the Oestrogen Boost supplement, as often an improvement in progesterone levels increases the sensisivity of oestrogen receptors and therefore lowering the need to dramatically increase oestrogen production.
