Progest E

[A. squamosa]

Hey everyone,

I'm wondering how much Progest E I should take, and when (I'm a late 20s female)? Also, how long does one bottle last*?

Thanks!

*edit: as in a use-by/best before date

Exactly how much is most useful probably depends on our own state (we vary quite a bit), and maybe how severe the symptoms are that you are wanting to address. Some personal experimentation may be needed.

Here's one possible way to approach dosage:

* That document refers to it as Dr Peat's progesterone formulation, but AIUI, it is not exactly to Peat's patented specification (though similar and useful to many of us), and Peat is not associated with the production or selling of it, and has no financial interest in it.

Just looking at other pages on that web site, I wouldn't overall rely on the guidance on the whole site - seems to be endorsing the use of supplementary estrogen during menopause (together with progesterone), which I'm about 100% sure Peat would recommend against. But the specific progesterone dosing suggestions in the PDF seem reasonable, though not necessarily the only or best way for everyone.

Thanks for the advice, and nooo way would I supplement estrogen! Got enough of that bouncing around already. I'll probably use the suggestions as a rough guide and start from there
