Ep.120: All About Progesterone

Progesterone is an incredibly vital reproductive hormone that's responsible for many aspects of overall health. When it's not doing what it should be, it stands out! Issues like PMS/PMDD, implantation failure, early miscarriage, and postpartum depression can all be due to low progesterone! In order to address these issues at their source, it's best to first learn as much as we can about Progesterone. Today's episode shares a great introduction, including what it is, how it functions, how to tell if it may be low, and the process in diagnosis and treatment. You'll even learn about bioidentical progesterone vs. progestin! NOTE: This episode makes use of female anatomical terms, and does briefly mention pregnancy loss possibilities.
