Episode Synopsis

Over the next few episodes, I am going to be sharing a series of presentations that I created which cover each of the different hormones and how they impact the way that you look and feel as you move through your menopause transition.  Today you will discover more about progesterone, it’s role each month and what happens as your progesterone levels start to decline.  In fact, progesterone is the first of your reproductive hormones to start to decline since you have a dwindling supply of viable eggs, and you will not be ovulating every month.Role of progesteroneSupport the growth of egg and first 3 months of pregnancyProvides a sense of wellbeingPromotes restful sleepAnti-anxietyCalms the brainNatural anti-inflammatoryBuilds bonesProtects the heartIncrease metabolic rateNormalises immune functionLow progesterone symptomsMood swings including anxiety and depressionProblems sleepingJoint and body painWeight gainTendency to auto-immune conditionsFatigueMore painful periods especially crampingHeavy bleedingDecrease in bone densityIf you want to discover how you can get control of your hormones and navigate your menopause transition with ease then why not join me for the free Secret to Thriving in Menopause Workshop that kicks off on May 9th.  To register click HERE. Infinite Love and GratitudeAngela
