ABOUT PROGESTERONE CAPSULES

Progesterone is added to estrogen therapy to prevent the overgrowth of the cells that line the uterus, which can lead to uterine cancer.  Therefore, women who have not had a hysterectomy (removal of the uterus) will receive progesterone in addition to estrogen.

This capsule contains a Bi-Est or Bi-Estrogen component, which consists of two estrogens – Estradiol and Estriol. There are three types of estrogen that are produced by the ovaries: Estrone (E1), Estradiol (E2), and Estriol (E3). Estradiol is the dominant estrogen in premenopausal women.  Estrone is the second dominant estrogen and is produced by the metabolism of estradiol. Estriol is the weakest of the three estrogens but it is considered the safest estrogen.

Low levels of estrogen can result in symptoms such as irregular menstrual periods, sleep disturbances, excessive sweating, and vaginal dryness. Over time, low levels of estrogen can lead to complications such as osteoporosis, depression and heart disease. If you have low estrogen levels and are experiencing symptoms, your doctor may choose to prescribe bioidentical hormone replacement therapy.

SYMPTOMS OF LOW PROGESTERONE

You may have been experiencing symptoms resulting from low levels of estrogen.  Hence your doctor may have decided to treat the symptoms using hormone replacement therapy (HRT).  Bioidentical hormones have chemical composition similar to the hormones produced by the body and offer therapeutic benefits.  Bioidentical hormones when taken orally get converted to a different hormone by the liver. In order to get the therapeutic benefit of the indented hormone the best form is the topical form of the hormone.  These progesterone capsules have been specially compounded to meet your need as this formulation is not available on the market.

SIDE EFFECTS

Some of the side effects that you may experience are slight vaginal bleeding, nausea/vomiting, bloating, appetite changes, breast tenderness and swelling, fluid retention and in some cases anxiety and irritability.  The side effects may be temporary and in some cases can be resolved by adjusting the dose.

WHAT SHOULD I DO IF I MISS A DOSE?

Take your next dose of the medication as soon as you remember unless it is close to your next dose.  In that case skip the dose and resume your scheduled dose. Never double your dose!

DO I HAVE INCREASED RISK OF BREAST CANCER?

Studies have indicated that -high levels of endogenous estrogen has been linked with increased risk of breast cancer.  This compound capsule is an effective therapy for women suffering from bothersome symptoms of estrogen deficiency.
