Menopause is the time in a woman's life when menstruation stops permanently. Also known as the "change of life," menopause is the point in which the ovaries reduce their production of female sex hormones, a process which begins about three to five years before the final menstrual period.
What Does Progesterone have to do with Menopause?
Due to ovulatary cycles, progesterone levels typically decline before menstruation starts and this is followed by a decline in estrogen. Throughout the course of a woman's life, the hormones estrogen and progesterone are constantly fluctuating. Progesterone production tends to fall to almost zero while estrogen declines to about 40% to 50%. It is the imbalance between these two hormones that can cause the
symptoms of PMS, menopause and accelerated bone loss after menopause.
Progesterone is essential for survival and its deficiency can cause a wide range of problems. Natural Progesterone cream applied transdermally is stored in the fatty tissues for use as needed by the body to reverse the effects of estrogen dominance.
What is Estrogen Dominance?
Dr. Lee has coined the term "estrogen dominance" to describe what happens when the normal balance of estrogen to Progesterone is changed by excess estrogen or inadequate progesterone. Estrogen is a potent and potentially dangerous hormone when not balanced by adequate Progesterone. Women who have suffered from PMS, and or menopausal symptoms will recognize the common symptoms of estrogen dominance: mood swings, weight gain, irritability, tender breasts, hot flashes, night sweats, bloating, headaches, fatigue, depression, loss of energy and sex drive, endometriosis, hypoglycemia, and uterine fibroids.
Would I benefit from Natural Progesterone even though I've had a hysterectomy?
Yes! A partial or total hysterectomy generally causes the production of Progesterone to stop, but not the production of Estrogen. Recent medical studies have shown that women who have had surgically induced menopause (hysterectomy) or natural menopause, can have their hormone levels checked even years later and will only notice a slight decline in the amount of estrogen found in the body. However, Progesterone levels can drop to zero. (The body can obtain estrogen through food, the environment, and even make it very easily in other organ of the body). This causes estrogen dominance. This unopposed estrogen can now cause many of the symptoms that you may be experiencing.
How Safe is Pure Relief Natural Progesterone Cream?
The placenta produces about 300 mg of Progesterone daily during the third trimester of pregnancy, so we know that a one-time overdose of the cream is virtually impossible. If you used an entire jar at once it might make you sleepy.
I am Currently Taking Estrogen. Can I still use Pure Relief?
Dr. Lee recommends that you begin using the Natural Progesterone cream while gradually reducing the amount of estrogen. You do this by skipping days from taking the estrogen pills. Some people take their estrogen pills every other day, then every third day, and so on. If you decide to continue taking some form of estrogen, Dr. Lee states that you must take some form of Progesterone with it.
Once I start using Pure Relief, how long will it take to work?
It varies from person to person. Many users notice a difference within the first week or so. Since every woman's body is different, Dr. John Lee states that it could take up to 30 to 45 days to get the full benefit of the product.

Frequently Asked Questions About L'Bri's Progesterone Cream
How often should I use Pure Relief Cream?
Twice daily. Before bedtime is a good time. Most women prefer to use the cream after showering in the morning as well.
How much cream should I use?
1/4 to 1/2 teaspoon with each application.
Can I use more?
Not really. The ingredients in the cream are absorbed by the fat cells in your body. Hormones are VERY powerful; a little goes a long way. Your fat cells typically reach overload quickly. If you apply more your body probably will not be able to absorb it.
Where do I put the cream?
Your body absorbs the cream best when used on soft skin. Hands and feet, for example, are too rough. Users get the best results if they rotate where they place the cream. Research has shown the body can only absorb the ingredients in the wild yam cream once every fourth day. It is very important to follow the four day rotation period for the best results.
Here is a suggested rotation. You can certainly devise a system that works best for you.

Can I put my hand directly into the jar?
Yes, if you wash your hands first. If you are worried about bacteria growing in the jar after you've used it for awhile, use a measuring spoon to scoop out the cream instead of your hands.
Can I use the cream all month?
If you are a woman, absolutely not. Menstruating women should start using the cream twice daily on day 8 of their menstrual cycle. (The day you get your period is day 1). Continue using the cream until the onset of your next period. Do not use the cream from the day you get your period until day 8.
Women who have had hysterectomies or who have already gone through menopause still only need to use the cream for three weeks each month. For these women, start the cream on the eighth day of the month. Use the cream until the last day of the month. Then don't use the cream until the eighth day of the next month.
Will Pure Relief Cream make my breasts grow?
There have been many documented cases of women who have increased one cup size using the cream. But there are no guarantees. One thing is certain. DO NOT put the cream on your breasts every day. Once every fourth day is the maximum.
I don’t want my breasts to grow. Can I still use the cream?
Absolutely. Just skip the breasts as part of your rotation.
Can I use the cream if I want to get pregnant?
Yes. Since progesterone can inhibit fertility, don’t start using the cream until day 15 of your cycle. This is the day after you ovulate when it is biologically impossible to conceive. Use the cream until you get your period and then start again on day 15.
Will Pure Relief Cream help my menstrual cramps?
Yes. Apply 1/8 teaspoon of the cream to the abdomen every 30 minutes until the pain subsides. This is one exception to the rule that you do not use the cream during your period. The cream may be used for pain relief during days 1-8.
Will Pure Relief Cream help muscular soreness?
Yes. Apply 1/8 teaspoon of the cream to the aching area every 30 minutes until the pain subsides.
Will Pure Relief Cream help my headaches?
Yes. Both men and women have reported that the cream is effective in alleviating headache pain, including migraines. Apply 1/8 teaspoon of the cream to the back of the neck and the temples every 30 minutes until you get relief. If you get frontal headaches, apply the cream to your forehead.
Will Pure Relief Cream help me with hot flashes?
Yes. Hot flashes are caused when you have too much estrogen in relation to progesterone. By raising your progesterone levels, you correct your estrogen / progesterone ratio. This should alleviate the discomfort of hot flashes.
Will Pure Relief Cream help me with mood swings?
Yes, for the same reason. Mood swings are caused by an estrogen/progesterone imbalance. You can mitigate them by correcting the ratio with the cream.
How soon can I expect results?
Many users experience results their first menstrual cycle. Most women will enjoy noticeable benefits within 60 days.
Can I use Pure Relief Cream if I’m on hormone replacement therapy?
Absolutely. Many of our customers do so well they eventually choose to discontinue using the manufactured hormones and just use the cream, a natural solution. Many women have successfully gone through menopause with a minimum of discomfort using only the cream.
