Natural Progesterone

Natural progesterone is the exact hormone that is produced in a woman’s ovary. It is made from naturally occurring plant steroids found in the wild yam. It is NOT the synthetic version that is commonly purchased as tablets with a prescription. The synthetic progesterone can produce side effects including increased risk of cancer, abnormal menstrual flow, fluid retention, nausea, and depression. Side effects are extremely rare with natural progesterone.

Natural progesterone is very useful to balance excess estrogen. The reasons for excess of estrogen are:

1. Overproduction of estrogen. Ovarian cysts or tumors can lead to excess estrogen production. Stress and obesity may contribute because all body fat has an enzyme, which converts adrenal steroids to estrogen, so the more fat you have the more estrogen.

2. Inability to breakdown estrogen. Excess estrogen is generally removed by the liver. Increased sugar intake, lack of Vitamin B6 and magnesium can interfere with the body’s ability to breakdown estrogen.

3. Exposure to pesticides in foods. There are many unnatural chemicals that share a common structure with estrogen and serve as "false" estrogens that further stimulate the body’s estrogen receptors.

4. Estrogen Supplementation. Estrogen needs to be properly balanced with natural progesterone.

5. Decreased production of progesterone. Progesterone is necessary to counterbalance estrogen. If women do not ovulate during their cycle they will not produce any progesterone that cycle. This happens commonly and worsens the already disturbed progesterone/estrogen balance

 The Effects Estrogen & Progesterone may have on the Body:

• Estrogen Effects Progesterone Effects

• Stimulates breast cysts Protects against breast cysts

• Increases body fat storage Helps use fat for energy and keep it off hips

• Salt & fluid retention Natural diuretic (water pill)

• Depression and headaches Natural anti-depressant

• Interferes wit thyroid hormone Facilitates thyroid hormone action

• Increases blood clotting and risk of stroke Normalizes blood clotting

• Decreases libido (sex drive) Increases libido

• Impairs blood sugar control Normalizes blood sugar levels

• Reduces oxygen level in all cells Restores proper cell oxygen levels

• Increases risk of endometrial cancer Prevents endometrial cancer

• Increased risk of breast cancer Helps prevent breast cancer

• Helps decrease bone loss slightly Increases bone building

Osteoporosis

For more than 50 years medicine has believed that lack of estrogen was the primary cause of osteoporosis. Estrogen cannot rebuild bone density loss. 

As the bones in our body mineralize the osteoblast cells function to reabsorb those mineralized bones. Estrogen does, in fact inhibit the osteoblast cells from reabsorbing, as a result it slows the rate of bone loss. The problem is this, slowing the reabsorbtion still leaves you with mineralized bone that can break easily.

Progesterone, on the other hand, rebuilds bone by stimulating the osteoblast cells that re-mineralize and restore bone mass. Transdermal progesterone does this with virtually no side effects.

Pre-Menopause and Menopause

Bounty, Nature’s ScienCeuticals Bounty is a superior female tonic which gives phytohormonal nutritional support. 

Women of all ages have reported excellent result by dealing with PMS and other hormonal problems, including permenopausal and menopausal women. 

Seven major herbs are in this formula.

Black Cohosh (Cimicifuga racemosa), Licorice Root (Glycyrrhiza glabra), Siberian Ginseng Root (Eleutherococcus senticosus), Sarsaparilla Root (Smilax offinalis), Squawvine Herb (Mitchella repens), Blessed Thistle Herb (Cnicus Benedictus) and False Unicorn Root (Chamaelirium luteum)

Black Cohosh Root has been valued by many societies including the Native Americans, for its nutritional support of the female reproductive system. Clinical findings include the following supportive properties: promotion and/or restoration of menstrual health, soothing irritation and congestion of the uterus, relief of pain and distress during pregnancy, promotion of uncomplicat4d deliveries, and promotion of uterine recovery. Black Cohosh has been experimentally proven to contribute to reducing hypertension through vasodilation of peripheral veins.

Licorice Root, according to Rodale’s Illustrated Encyclopedia of Herbs, has been used to support the treatment of dropsy, fever, menstrual cramps, menopausal symptoms, irritated urinary, bowel, respiratory passages, influenza, and hypoglycemia. Licorice root is well established as an estrogenic although researchers have not agreed on its active principles. 

Siberians Ginseng Root has been studied for its medicinal properties, especially its adaptogenic qualities. According to Rodales’ Encyclopedia, an adaptogen is "a substance, which protects against stress, physical and mental," that is; "adaptogens help the body functions return to normal more quickly than they would otherwise. Hence, Ginseng is supposed to increase physical endurance. 

Sarsaparilla Root contains sulfur, iron, calcium, potassium, and magnesium.

Squawvine Herb is so named because the Native American women took it for several weeks to prepare for the ease of childbirth. It is a supportive diuretic, may be beneficial in all uterine complaints. It may help the body dispose of excess fluid by increasing the amount of urine produced and shrinks tissues.

Blessed Thistle Herb is commonly used to support the female reproductive system. It is one of the oldest remedies to assist the treatment of amenorrhea, the absence of the menstrual cycle after the onset of menstruation. Blessed Thistle stimulates the production of bile by the liver.

False Unicorn Root is known to be one of the finest uterine tonics to prevent miscarriage and is excellent for menopause problems.

I would recommend taking 2 capsules 2-3 times a day for about 6 months. Not recommended during pregnancy except under supervision of a health practitioner.

Well-Being, Energy, Youthfulness

Life Enhancer helps balance the hormonal system of your body. Centuries of research yielded the time-tested Chinese Imperial formulation from which Life Enhancer is derived. One means by which Life Enhancer helps to both invigorate and sustain your body is through its chief ingredient-radix polygoni multi-flori complex. This herb helps nourish the endrocrine system, the system that produces and delivers secretions of hormones to regulate your body systems and processes. A decrease in the functionality and output of the endocrine system could mean a slowdown in the healthy functioning of your body. In fact, fatigue and "feeling old" may be signs that the systems of your body are already slowing down.
Thanks to years of research, the Life Enhancer formula can help you generate a renewed sense of well-being, energy, and youthfulness.
