“The most creative force in the universe is
menopausal women with
zest”
These words spoken by Raquel Martin author of The Estrogen Alternative:
natural hormone therapy with botanical progesterone. Martin goes on to
describe as many researchers have the full range of womens’ conditions
which progesterone cream successfully treats. Her own experience, those of
countless others who take matters into their own hands including myself, a
younger women can testify to the benefits of using progesterone cream as
part of a healthy lifestyle including diet and exercise to balance
hormones naturally.
Here is some info about progesterone cream. Both the Wild oats on
Johnson drive in Mission and the store on Main St, in midtown carry a
product made by Zand in a pump form. Each pump contains a 20 mg. dose of
cream which you would rub into your low abdomen on the days you are not
menstruating. There is a natural dip in progesterone before a woman’s
period which triggers the uterine wall to break down. But a dip which is
too drastic or a general decline before or during menopause can cause a
host of complaints. Its a misnomer that women lack estrogen. It’s actually
estrogen unopposed which may create pms headaches, mood swings, drops in
blood pressure, weight gain, vaginal dryness, hot flashes, osteoporosis,
some joint pain, dry skin and cramps. Cramps are caused when the adrenal
gland has been drained of cortisone due to stress or exertion.
Progesterone is a precursor to cortisone and prevents this from happening.
When a women is pregnant she has more progesterone then she ever naturally
produces. It is responsible for the sense of well being many women feel
when the are pregnant. The Kal product costs 20$ for a 21 day
amount.
