Everyday Progesterone

by Brandie
(SC)

I was just wondering if it would be bad to continue to use the cream everyday? My menstrual cycles are so erratic that it is hard for me to know when I do/do not ovulate in order to start the cream for the 14 day use.

I love the way it makes me feel... I feel so much better when using the cream. So, is it ok to continue using the cream daily even though I am not in menopause? Would it be harmful to do this other than it may suppress my body from making its own natural progesterone? Thank you so much for ALL of your help!

Hi Brandie. You can use the cream daily, I did in peri-menopause (PM) and didn't look back. Each time I took a break my symptoms came back, with a vengeance it seemed! It's impossible to follow them anyway. Using it daily can suppress our own progesterone, as it does stop ovulation if a high dose is used. But in PM we ovulate so infrequently, it won't be a problem. Please have a look at this page. Thanks for the kind words! Take care, Wray
