I mix 100mg of DHEA into every new bottle of Progest-e (as recommended by RP for pelvic organ prolapse). It takes a while for the powder from the DHEA capsule to dissolve fully. Once it does, I apply olive oil vaginally first, followed by three large-ish drops of progest-e. RP says that continuing this while pregnant is fine, and that some progesterone can be helpful-- but that it's a good idea to get labs done to check progesterone levels.
He also said (of the above mixture): "DHEA strengthens elastic tissues and with progesterone it opposes the effect of estrogen."
I like the strengthening of elastic tissues idea for childbirth!
Guh, just found out that dhea is not recommended during pregnancy. Don't do what I did! I used the dhea/progest-e mixture all the way through the
first trimester!
Use dhea w/progest-e up until pregnant and the discontinue.
Would there be any benefit to take progestE if you have a regular menstrual cycle but want super smart and happy babies? I’m a bit afraid to play with my hormones but also excited by all the wonderful things it does for babies according to RP
Thanks so much for that! I'm wondering which DHEA you use. At the moment I have a bottle of the BioMatrix Liquid which contains alcohol. You think it better to use a powder or break open a capsule?I dip a finger in Olive oil then insert as far as I can, followed by a finger with the progest-e. Low tech but gets the job done!
Is it good for topical vaginal issues & discomfort I.e inflammation, itching, soreness etc & how much to take?I've taken Progesterone vaginally and it was very effective. I used it to cure amenorrhea. Worked like a charm. However, it did ooze out a bit so I had to wear a panti-liner. Also, it was in peanut oil so that sucked, later on I found out I could have it made at a compounding pharmacy where I could supply my own oil. That's were I get it from now. I still use Progest-E for topical issues but I can't seem to get enough milligrams of it so I had to add in 200mg capsules of prescription progesterone, mixed with EVOO.
I wasn't experiencing those issues so I can't really say if it would help in that regard. Can't hurt to try though I would think.Is it good for topical vaginal issues & discomfort I.e inflammation, itching, soreness etc & how much to take?
