Q& A:
- If I’m NOT taking any estrogen can I use the Probalance Progesterone cream?
Menopausal Women NOT taking estrogen have a wider latitude in using the cream. For convenience, you may choose a dosage schedule based on the calendar month. Use the cream 2x/day from the 2nd to the 14th or 21st of each month and none from the 15th or 22nd to the end of the month. Some women report that using a larger dab of cream at night helps them sleep better.
- If I AM taking any estrogen can I still use the Probalance Progesterone cream?
Menopausal women taking estrogen should reduce their dosage by half when starting to use progesterone cream. This is important because in women deficient in progesterone, the cream may temporarily increase the sensitivity of estrogen receptors. If estrogen intake is not reduced, you may experience of estrogen dominance during the first couple of months. You may try lowering your estrogen dose by half again every 2-3 months. (The estrogen does should be low enough that monthly bleeding does not occur, but high enough to prevent vaginal dryness and hot flashes.) Estrogen and progesterone can be used together for up to 25 days each month, with 7 days without either hormone.
- What if I’m taking an estrogen-progesterone combination cream already do I still use this cream as well?
Menopausal women taking an estrogen-progesterone combination should refer to Dr. John Lee’s book, What Your Doctor May Not Tell You About Menopause (Time-Warner Books) and definitely consult with your doctor before changing anything you may already be on.
