    Any Women Taking ProgestE Continuously?

    I've decided to try this for a few months, instead of starting and stopping it. My question is, if you take it continously do you vary the dose during first half of cycle and increase it second half - or do you stay on the same high dose all month long? I'm taking 200 - 300 mg. now during...

    Progesterone And Depression

    If I recall correctly, Peat sometimes advised use of progesterone for depression. Is there a rationale, or related study, to support the advice?

    Pregnenolone, Progesterone And Androsterone Are Aromatase Inhibitors

    I have seen some people in the forum claim that they thought pregnenolone increased their estrogen levels. According to this study, pregnenolone should in fact lower estrogen by inhibiting aromatase. Peat has already written extensively on progesterone being a known aromatase inhibitor, so that...

    Caffeine Increases Pregnenolone & Progesterone In The Brain

    As a follow up on my other posts, caffeine is really shaping up to be another Peatarian panacea.

    Ladies taking progest-e

    I read on here that progest-e is recommended from the latter half of the menstrual cycle following ovulation. For those of you that do this-- do you track your cycle for ovulation so you know when to start progest-e?

    Progesterone vs. DHEA

    Peat thinks progesterone is a safe supplement. I wonder though if it could have bad effects by antagonizing DHEA. Peat mentioned that he cured moles using DHEA, so why couldn't progesterone make moles appear by antagonizing DHEA?

    Is Progesterone Safe For Fertility?

    I'd like to try out progesterone. I was wondering, is it definitely safe for fertile women, as in, it won't mess up your hormones? I've heard the stories of it being very helpful for symptoms, and that's why I'd like to try it. My hormones are quite balanced I think (regular periods, changes...

    Progest-e And Postmenopausal

    Hello to all, I just ordered my Progest-e, but I am wondering if being post menopausal has any bearing on the dosages. Long Natural Health gives a pretty good written summary of how to use it and they also stated that in some cases thyroid should also be used. Navigating these new waters is...

    Progesterone, Smoking And Blood Clots?

    A friend asked her doctor about taking Progest-E or black cohosh for menopause symptoms. He told her no way since she smoked she couldn't take any hormonal stuff as it put her at risk for blood clots. I think this applies to artificial hormones. Any advice?

    Progesterone And Goiter

    I have large (and very problematic) uterine fibroids. I would love to megadose myself with progest-e, but I also have a large substernal goiter, and there's that caution about the progesterone causing the thyroid to start unloading its colloid and making you hyperthyroid for a while. (I know...
