79. What Happened When I Ran Out of Progesterone (and Why It Matters After 40)

79. What Happened When I Ran Out of Progesterone (and Why It Matters After 40)

What happens when you stop taking progesterone, even for just a few weeks? In this quick episode, I'm sharing my personal story of running out of progesterone, how my symptoms came rushing back, and why this hormone is so important for women in perimenopause.

You'll learn why dosing and delivery methods matter, common signs of low progesterone, and how we help clients find a provider who actually understands women's hormones. I covered:

  • My story of running out of progesterone and the symptoms that returned

  • How progesterone is the first hormone to decline after 35

  • Common signs of low progesterone: mood swings, anxiety, poor sleep, heavy periods

  • The pros and cons of oral, vaginal/rectal, and topical progesterone

  • Why dosing matters (too low can trigger "estrogen kickback")

  • Why it's vital to find a hormone-savvy provider who listens and prescribes appropriately
