If you used an entire jar at once it might make you sleepy. However, Dr. Lee recommends that a woman avoid using higher than the recommended dosage to avoid hormone imbalances. Such high doses create undesirable metabolites and unnecessarily overload the liver . Dr. John Lee suggests that you begin using the Natural Progesterone cream while gradually reducing the amount of estrogen. You can do this by skipping days from taking the estrogen pills.
Some women take their estrogen pills every other day, then every third day, and so on.
If you decide to continue taking some form of estrogen, Dr Lee states that you must take some form of Progesterone with it. Never take unopposed estrogen. One of the primary reasons why women take Natural Progesterone is to help improve their bone density levels. There have been many reported cases of women with severe osteoporosis who have improved their bone density with Natural Progesterone. Many of the women that we speak to begin to notice a difference within the first week or so.
