Frequently Asked Questions

What is Proféria?

Proféria is a topical progesterone cream that may be used to increase progesterone levels in women who are suffering from hormonal imbalances. Unlike other hormones, researchers have found that progesterone is optimally delivered to the body when applied through the skin as opposed to being administered orally. Proféria is all natural, containing no synthetic hormones typically prescribed by physicians.

Why Proféria?

Proféria contains a highly soluble wild yam extract as a base for its high absorption rate, as well as 500 mg of USP progesterone per ounce. It does not contain petroleum, lanolin, or other animal derived ingredients.

Is Progesterone right for me?

Studies have been conducted that demonstrate the safety of USP progesterone when applied topically as a therapy for hormone imbalance. If you suffer from symptoms that are believed to be the result of a hormonal imbalance, we recommend consulting your physician prior to starting any hormone therapy. 

What is Mexican wild yam extract?

Mexican wild yam has been shown to be an excellent source of natural progesterone. However, the human body cannot convert this extract into progesterone on its own. The progesterone must be extracted from Mexican wild yam in a laboratory setting, where it can then be standardized and tested for safety and efficacy. Progesterone can only be extracted from wild yam in a laboratory setting, as it is in Proféria, and the end result is a bio-identical hormone that is ideal for women suffering from hormonal imbalances.

Is Proféria safe?

No serious or adverse side effects have been reported from taking Proféria.

When is the best time to apply Proféria?

For best results, apply the cream as directed (see Suggested Use).

Can I take other supplements while using Proféria?

Proféria can be used safely while taking dietary supplements.

How long does it take for Proféria to work?

For therapeutic regimens, the progression may be slow for some and quicker for others. Typically, anytime one is addressing hormonal imbalance with a product such as Proféria, symptoms of hormonal change can occur in a matter of days, though it is not always common to happen that quickly. This is the first step in the process, and the most important, as hormonal imbalances left in their unbalanced state can lead to an increasing variety of health concerns.
