    Product Information

    Who it's for
    We prescribe Progesterone to anyone with a uterus taking estrogen-based hormone therapy. It can also benefit people looking to improve their sleep or anxiety.
    Benefits
    Progesterone can improve sleep quality, promote a calmer, more stabilized mood, and reduce the risk of uterine cancer for women taking estrogen therapy.
    What to expect
    Results:
  • Paired with estrogen, the effect of Progesterone can be felt as early as 2 weeks, but may take a few months in some cases.

  • Most importantly, taking progesterone with estrogen reduces your risk of uterine cancer.

  • Downsides:
  • Side effects can include breast tenderness, bloating, and weight gain. These side effects may go away over time as your body adjusts to the treatment.

  • Check with your Modern Age clinician if more severe side effects occur.

  • Safety information
    It is very important to take Progesterone along with estrogen if you have a uterus. This is to prevent increased thickness of the uterine lining that could lead to endometrial hyperplasia and cancer.

    Additionally, if you have a peanut allergy we will not be able to prescribe this medication. We may be able to recommend other types of progesterone.

    What our experts say

    Progesterone is an important partner to estrogen as it balances out effects on the inner uterine lining to prevent cancer. This is a key to safe use of hormone therapy. Beyond that progesterone can also offer help with the quality of sleep which can be a huge struggle with natural aging.
