Progesterone and Pregnancy: How to Use
Progesterone

pages about progesterone.
Progesterone is
normally made in abundance during pregnancy.
At first it is produced by the corpus luteum, the cyst that
was formed when the egg was released at the ovary.
Once the fertilized egg implants the placenta takes over the
production of progesterone.
Progesterone
maintains the pregnancy – keeping the uterine lining in-tact.
Progesterone prevents certain miscarriages and helps to
prevent preterm labor and premature birth later on.
But what if progesterone is deficient?
What happens then is miscarriages, preterm labor and
premature birth.
How can a deficiency
in progesterone during pregnancy be remedied?
There are several ways.
Your conventional doctor may prescribe pills, shots or
vaginal suppositories.
Or you can use a transdermal natural progesterone cream.
Natural progesterone cream is the one that you don’t need (in
the
Unfortunately most
conventional traditional physicians either don’t know of the
benefits of a natural progesterone cream – or they won’t advocate
using it. Usually it’s
because they are uneducated on the use of natural remedies and a
natural progesterone cream is not being promoted by the major drug
companies. So with this
in mind you have to decide for yourself whether or not you think
it’s the right thing to use.
By law I have to say “Always seek the advice of your
physician before taking or using any natural remedy.”
Now that we have all
the legalities out of the way – let’s go on to talk about the
benefits of natural progesterone cream to pregnancy.
The number one
question asked is how safe is natural progesterone cream to use
during pregnancy?
Because the progesterone in a natural progesterone cream completely
resembles the progesterone your body produces there are no
ill-effects to use the cream all the way through pregnancy.
Compare Natural Progesterone Cream to the
Prescriptions
Normally a physician
will prescribe the pills or suppositories if a patient has a
progesterone level done and shows to be deficient.
The suppositories are given from ovulation until about 7 to
12 weeks of pregnancy, when the danger of miscarriage has passed.
The progesterone
shots are given later in pregnancy to prevent preterm labor and
premature birth. These
are given if the “preterm labor” test comes back positive, or if
there’s a known history of preterm labor and premature birth.
Natural progesterone
cream is just as effective as the pills, suppositories and shots.
Many women have used the cream with great results.
Now there are some traditional doctors that have researched
the use of natural progesterone cream and are recommending their
patients to use it during pregnancy.
The benefits of using a natural progesterone cream is both
effective and cost efficient.
There are documented
cases of women who had previously suffered from both miscarriage and
preterm labor / premature birth who conceived and carried their baby
to full term because they used a natural progesterone cream.
