Ever feel like you're emotionally volatile one minute and fine the next? Waking at 3 AM with racing thoughts? Experiencing unexplainable anxiety despite being generally happy? You might be living in a progesterone desert, and you're not alone.
Today, Lindsey and Laken discuss why progesterone is arguably the most misunderstood hormone in women's health. While commonly associated only with pregnancy and menstruation, this powerful neurosteroid affects everything from your mood and sleep to cognitive function and stress regulation. The shocking truth? Progesterone begins steadily declining in your late 30s, years before menopause, leaving countless women suffering needlessly while being told their hormones are "normal" because they're still having regular periods.
Today, you'll learn:
Whether you're in your 30s just beginning to notice subtle changes, navigating the turbulent waters of perimenopause, or well into your post-menopausal years, understanding this forgotten hormone could transform your experience of womanhood. Don't wait until you're officially "menopausal" to address symptoms that might be stemming from low progesterone today.
