Progesterone is a natural hormone produced by the corpeus luteum in women, as well as in smaller amounts by the adrenal glands in both males and females. Research shows that the inclusion of progesterone is extremely important in HRT for women, especially for balancing the effects of estrogen. At menopause, estrogen levels can drop to 40-60% of premenopausal levels, while progesterone levels can drop to zero in certain cases. Supplementing with progesterone balances the estrogen levels in menopausal and premenopausal women (who can become estrogen dominant 10-15 years prior to menopause) and is also a precursor for the production of other steroid hormones important to overall health and well-being.
