10 Natural Hormone Boosting Creams You Can Make At Home

10 Natural Hormone Boosting Creams You Can Make At Home

During menopause, a woman’s progesterone levels may dramatically drop more than sixty percent below her baseline levels, disrupting the body’s natural hormone balance and causing unwanted symptoms. Progesterone cream or ointment can be utilized as a form of hormone replacement therapy to relieve the burden of menopause symptoms. Progesterone is a natural steroid hormone responsible for working with other hormones such as estrogen to operate a woman’s menstrual cycle and ovulation. It is also needed to build new bone tissue and prevent the development of endometriosis, or excess growth in the lining of the uterus.

10. Menopause Relief Cream

When making progesterone cream at home, make sure the cream contains pure United States Pharmacopeia (USP) progesterone for optimal purity, strength, and quality. Progesterone can be absorbed into the bloodstream through the skin. The best place to apply it topically is on the upper chest, inner arms, lower back, and palms of the hands. Do not use more than thirty milligrams a day and be sure to rotate the sites of application. Apply one-quarter teaspoon of USP grade progesterone to the skin and forearms three times daily for menopause relief.

9. PMS Hormone Therapy Cream

Before buying a USP grade progesterone, be sure the product does not contain any progestins, which is a synthetic version of progesterone sold by pharmaceutical companies. While progesterone is needed for a healthy pregnancy, progestins are associated with congenital disabilities. Because it is a synthetic product, progestin is not absorbed very well by the body and may cause more harm than good. For relief from PMS symptoms, apply one-quarter teaspoon of USP grade progesterone to the skin daily starting on the day after ovulation occurs until the day before a woman’s period begins.

8. Infertility, Endometriosis, And Fibroid Treatment Cream

Natural USP grade progesterone is derived from plant fats and oils. Most of them come from a substance called diosgenin, which is extracted from a type of wild yam that grows in Mexico. However, there is no evidence to support the use of wild yam extract for progesterone hormone therapy. Instead, apply one-quarter of USP grade progesterone cream to the skin daily on days six through twenty-six for infertility, endometriosis, and fibroid treatment. Be sure to stop using the cream after the third month of pregnancy.

7. Black Cohosh Cream

Black cohosh, or Cimifiuga racemosa, is a herb that has been shown to balance estrogen in the body and naturally boost the production of progesterone by regulating compounds that act similarly to estrogen. It has been used to help induce pregnancy, support healthy menstruation, improve uterine muscle tone, and reduce the risk of a miscarriage. To use, add a teaspoon of black cohosh oil to a tablespoon of coconut oil and massage into the skin.

6. Maca Root Cream

Research shows that maca root, or Lepidium meyenii, may influence the production of progesterone to support hormonal balance without containing hormones itself. Progesterone levels become deficient when too much estrogen circulates the body. Maca root cream may be able to stabilize progesterone levels by reducing estrogen levels to restore the balance. To make a topical ointment, add a few drops of maca root extract to neem, jojoba, or almond oil and apply to the skin.

5. Licorice Cream

Licorice has been shown to boost progesterone levels in the body, which helps correct infertility and promotes regular ovulation and menstruation. It has also been shown to detoxify the liver to further assist in the balance of hormones. Women are advised to use licorice within the first two weeks of their menstrual cycle before ovulation begins. To make, heat one-quarter cup coconut oil, one-eighth cup shea butter, and one-eighth cocoa butter in a double boiler. Remove from heat once melted and add one teaspoon aloe vera juice, one tablespoon jojoba oil, and five to ten drops of licorice cream essential oil.

4. Vitex Cream

Vitex, otherwise known as the chaste tree, is a herb that has been highly regarded for its ability to restore fertility and menstrual health in women. Vitex has been shown to balance hormone levels by supporting the pituitary glands role in producing progesterone, which has been demonstrated to relieve menstruation ailments, acne, breast tenderness, and treat endometriosis. To use, apply a few drops of vitex essential oil directly to the skin. For better absorption, add a few drops to a coconut oil based cream.

3. Dong Quai Cream

Dong Quai is one of the most useful herbs for women. It has been shown to alleviate menstrual cramps, heaving bleeding, and premenstrual and menopausal symptoms. It can also be used as a blood purifier to reduce inflammation, improve fatigue and constipation, and treat infertility. To make, combine one-half cup almond oil, one teaspoon vitamin E, and several drops of Dong Quai essential oil. In a double boiler, heat one-quarter cup coconut oil and one-quarter-cup beeswax. Remove from heat. Once the mixture has cooled off, stir in the other ingredients.

2. Valerian Root Cream

The herb valerian has been shown to promote relaxation and better sleep habits in women who are progesterone deficient. Valerian helps induce sleep by calming and relaxing nerves and muscles, which may help cure one of the most common symptoms of menopause: insomnia. Add a teaspoon of valerian root powder or a few drops of Valerian root essential oil to USP grade progesterone cream to relieve menopause symptoms further, or it can be added to coconut oil and applied topically.

1. Turmeric Cream

Curcumin, the active ingredient in turmeric, has potent anti-inflammatory, antiviral and antibacterial properties. It has also been shown to increase progesterone levels in the body and relieve vaginal dryness, which is a common symptom of progesterone deficiency. Curcumin also detoxifies the liver and restores normal hormones concentrations in the body. To make, whip one cup of coconut oil in a blender on high for six to seven minutes. Add a teaspoon of turmeric powder and vitamin E oil and gently stir until combined.
