Show Notes

Do you need progesterone? This is a question we, as doctors, hear all the time, and one that is often answered wrong. Today, I'll be breaking down what progesterone actually is and how it's different from progestin. If you've been thinking that you have low progesterone, you don't want to miss this episode!


You will hear:

  • The benefits of progesterone... beyond balancing our estrogen or supporting pregnancy
  • What progestin is and its side effects
  • The biggest difference between progesterone and progestin
  • When you might need to consider using a bioidentical progesterone
  • Why your birth control isn't helping your health issues
  • And more!
