What is progesterone?

Progesterone is a hormone that is related to fertility, pregnancy, and overall health. Progesterone is produced by the ovaries after ovulation. This phase is very important to make the endometrium receptive so that the embryo can implant successfully. During pregnancy, it maintains the pregnancy in optimal condition.

Low progesterone levels can cause infertility or miscarriage, unusual vaginal bleeding or irregular periods / spotting, low sex drive and weight gain.

There is limited data available about natural progesterone supplements which are not regulated by the Food and Drug Administration (FDA). Please talk to your doctor before starting to use natural progesterone supplements.
