When taking Natural Progesterone, it is important that you understand the proper dosage instructions.

Natural Progesterone side effects -
There are no reports of any significant side effects or health problems associated with taking "Natural Progesterone". As Dr. Lee puts it, "the only side effect is that the guy across the room from you will get a little cuter".

Natural progesterone taking in the proper amounts may give some women a sense of euphoria, as their body re-balances progesterone to estrogen ratios. Also some women may experience a slight case of acne upon initial use as the the body adjusts and estrogen receptors become more sensitive.

What about high doses of natural Progesterone?
First of all we don't recommend high doses, but if you did, then,
in the words of Dr John Lee, M.D. "We know that transdermal progesterone is very affective, very convenient, and very safe. Overdoses do not hurt anybody. An overdose might mess up some bodies period, it could cause the period to change as to when it comes in the month."

.
Do I need a break from using the cream each month?   Yes.

For menstruating women it is important that the progesterone cream only be used from the 12th to the 26th day, counting the day the period starts as the first day. The reason is that the body uses progesterone to hold the blood lining in place during the last two weeks of the menstrual cycle. If the progesterone cream is used out of sequence, it will interfere with the menstrual cycle.

For non-menstruating women, it is recommended by Dr. Lee that the cream be used for three weeks and a break of one week.

What is the shelf life of Progesta Care?
ProgestaCare is guaranteed to have a shelf life of at least two years. It’s actual shelf life can be expected to be considerably longer because the cream is encapsulated in a hygienically sealed airtight container for the life of the cream. With each use of the pump, a piston moves up underneath the cream to ensure that the remaining cream remains airtight.

Possible Expectations
In premenopausal women, progesterone deficiency causes a “tuning down” of estrogen receptors, and progesterone cream reactivates these receptor sites. This can temporarily cause buildup of the endmetrium of the uterus, causing spotting and irregular bleeding. Most of these symptoms will disappear within a couple of menstrual cycles. If you have been progesterone deficient for years, it is common that the initial application of progesterone cream will cause water retention, headache, and swollen breasts – symptoms of estrogen dominance. This happens because the estrogen receptors shut down by progesterone deficiency are “waking up”. It is important to realize that these symptoms will disappear in two weeks to three cycle
