What are Progesterone Capsules?
Progesterone Capsules contain bioidentical, micronized progesterone — the "balance hormone" that works alongside estradiol. It protects the uterine lining from overgrowing (endometrial hyperplasia) in women receiving estrogen therapy, and has additional benefits for sleep quality, anxiety reduction, and mood stabilization. It is required therapy for any patient who has a uterus and is on estrogen.
