I have been prescribed C-progesterone cream for my hot flashes since I cannot take HRT orally. When I fill this prescription, it is filled by a pharmacy that has to prepare the compound a day in advance for me to purchase. Can c-progesterone be purchased at a local pharmacy so I can use my insurance? It is very costly and and I would like to be able to use it at CVS, Walmart, Walgreens, Target, etc. ## No, generally this compound must be done by a specialty compounding pharmacy, so regular pharmacies will not carry it.

After taking the pills I was supposed to start sprintec Sunday (today) but I never got my period. Is it okay to start taking or should I wait for my period? ## Hello, Katie! How are you? If the progesterone didn't induce a withdrawal bleed, then there may be something else going on here. Have you contacted your doctor to ask what you should do next?

Hi, my wife is 6 weeks pregnant. The doctor prescribed her Progesterone 200. Dr. told her it can be administered orally or vaginally. Which one works best? She had a little spotting also. ## Hello, Vakeri! How are you and your wife? Congrats on the baby! Using them vaginally usually results in more absorption of the medication. If it's taken orally, the liver tends to process out most of it. The FDA lists its typical side effects as possibly including nausea, dizziness, headache and irritability. Is there anything else I can help with?

please tell me the side affects of taking proge triest thank you ## Hello, Bunny! How are you? Progesterone is a hormone, so it tends to wake up the estrogen receptors in your body, when you start taking it and that could cause you to experience side effects, such as nausea, headache, weight gain, fluid retention, menstrual spotting and irritability. Is there anything else I can help with? ## My mom recently went off triest because of the cancer causing agent. She was on it for 20 yrs and switched to biest. Her body is responding in very negative ways (she is having a significantly lower heart rate, ear ringing and weakness). Is this something that dhea can help with temporarily?

I am 60 yrs old and have been menopausal 2 yrs. A hysterosonography Aug. 7, 2013 revealed I have hyperplasia (thickened uterus wall). I had 2 days very light spotting in June and I am scheduled for a DNC in mid November. My Dr. prescribed Progesterone to take orally 1 per day. I asked her if I could use Prometrium - the botanical based "natural" alternative to synthetic hormones. She said yes. I just picked up my prescription and it was for Progesterone 200 mg. The pharmacist said Prometrium is just another name for Progesterone and is no longer manufactured? This is not what I have researched and is it true Prometrium is no longer manufactured?

I have noticed hair loss when shampooing hair. I was taking a pill c-triest.progesterone 2mg/100mg. Took for 6 months and got off of it for 3 months, Started taking again in January. Could any of this cause hair loss? ## Hello, Lily! How are you? Yes, the estrogens can cause hair loss, especially if they are the dominant hormone. That's actually why many women in perimenopause and menopause experience hair loss, when you don't ovulate each month, or stop ovulating, you don't produce as much progesterone, but you are always inundated with estrogens. You may want to speak to your doctor about making some dosage adjustments, such as raising the progesterone and/or lowering the estrogens. Is there anything else I can help with? ## Thanks for your help.
