Progesterone cream use has been recommended for the reduction of menopausal symptoms. This cream can be applied as a moisturizing cream to the face, hands, abdomen, chest and the arms and legs. This cream is intended to be used by pre-menopausal and menopausal women for the purpose of reducing the symptoms of menopause.

Progesterone cream use is best on thin skin for absorption purposes. The cream is absorbed through the skin and into the fatty tissue that lies underneath and from there it is absorbed into the blood stream. Do not apply progesterone cream to the same location each and every time. You must rotate the locations where you apply the cream.

If you apply it to the face, the next time you will want to apply it to the hands and perhaps the feet next. You should check each area that you apply the cream for any sensitivity issues. This is especially true for the face because the face is the most sensitive portion of the body and the last place you want to have a skin reaction.

Progesterone cream use is only recommended on days 12 - 26 out of your cycle for best results. The progesterone cream should be applied twice a day during this period and always remember to rotate sites of application. The results of the cream will take about 20–mins to be noticeable and the relief will last up to 8 hrs. If your symptoms are sever you can add an additional treatment for 3 times a day treatment. This would provide 24hr coverage of the symptoms.

The treatment should continue between 3-6 months and that you should let you doctor know that you are doing this. This is to insure that your progesterone treatments do not have an adverse reaction to any other meds you are on or may be placed on. It is important that you use this cream on days 12 – 26 of your cycle. As you progress through menopause your period will stop and you will need to keep track. This will allow you to be as accurate as possible with your applications.
