Emerita Paraben Free Pro-Gest Creme 48 single applications for convenience Made by a leading trusted company in personal woman's care products Emerita Paraben-Free Pro-Gest® is the only brand of natural progesterone cream that has been clinically tested. It helps women find relief from issues that occur during perimenopause and menopause. During perimenopase and menopause, hormone imbalance can lead to discomforts such as hot flashes, night sweats, insomnia, vaginal dryness, irritability or decreased sex drive. These complaints are often present postmenopausal as well. During the reproductive years, hormone imbalance may cause premenstrual complaints such as water retention, breast tenderness, migraines or mood swings. What is Progesterone? Progesterone is a hormone that your body makes. It plays an important role in balancing out the effects of estrogen and other hormones. If you have too much estrogen and not enough progesterone, your body may be thrown out of balance. It is common for women who are approaching perimenopause, and even through menopause, to produce smaller amounts of progesterone. Pro-Gest® natural progesterone cream can supplement your body’s own progesterone levels and lead you back to a state of natural balance. Key Functional Ingredients: USP Progesterone, Vitamin E, Aloe Vera, Safflower Seed Oil, Sweet Almond Oil Pro-Gest® cream contains 450 milligrams (mg) of USP Progesterone per ounce (900 mg per two-ounce tube). Each ¼ tsp contains approximately 20 mg of USP Progesterone. Careful clinical research has shown this to be an effective amount to achieve natural balance. Pro-Gest® cream is intended for external use only. To apply, just massage a ¼ teaspoon into your skin twice a day. Apply it to your inner arms, inner thighs, abdomen, or chest, rotating the areas where applied. It absorbs quickly through the skin, and you're on your way back to a natural balance. Pro-Gest® is best used according to your menstrual status. The following are recommendations that should be confirmed or modified in concert with your health care provider. Women in their reproductive years: *These are only suggested use: Every woman finds the right balance for herself. We suggest starting with our recommendations and working from there. Pro-Gest® is best used during the second half of your menstrual cycle, for the two weeks prior to menstruation. Days 1 (first day of bleeding) -14: do not use Pro-Gest. Days 15 - 21: use ¼ teaspoon twice a day. Days 22-28: use ¼ to ½ teaspoon of Pro-Gest twice a day. The suggested use is based on a 28-day cycle. If your cycle is shorter or longer you may need to adjust the timing of use, earlier or later than day 14, to fit with ovulation. If your period begins early, STOP using the Pro-Gest while you are bleeding. Count the first day of bleeding as day one, and begin the cycle again.
