    I see a significant difference in my energy and happiness level when I take Internal Harmony, also made from yams, vitamins and herbs. It has saved me, twice in the last three years, from depression and exhaustion. I went off it over the summer and found myself a mess. As soon as I started taking it again I felt balanced and energized. Maybe it's the placebo effect, but I'm a believer.

I've been using "Organic Excellence, Feminine Balance Therapy, Bio-Identical USP Progesterone Cream" for 3 months, and it has removed 90% of my anxiety, I feel happy and calm, and acne and greasy hair are gone :)

    what a fantastic summary! Thank you :) I've been wondering about 'natural progesterone' creams and had a bit of an alarm bell going off in the back of my mind/ body/ intuition about those... so REALLY interesting to hear what you have to say about them! It's the first time I've heard someone talk about the fact that the body cannot absorb progesterone from the Wild Yam creams. So what do they do? Are they dangerous?

    Also, I have dhea cream from biolabs pro and this has: bio identical dhea , is this any good?
    I started on these after having hormone levels tested. They are all “ within normal range”. But all on the low side and cortisol on the high side. I have had them reviewed by dr. Karen legget. I wanted her products, but they don’t send to my country.

    • @NickiWilliamsHappyHormones
      @NickiWilliamsHappyHormones  5 років тому +2

      Hi Suzie, if there is no actual progesterone in the cream, it won't work as it can't be converted in the body. Red clover is useful as a phytoestrogen to regluate oestrogen levels but it won't have any effect on your progesterone. There is one cream I know of that has a low dose of body identical progesterone, it's called Serenity.

    Hi Nicki, this vid is quite old, but i'll ask in the hope you might reply, because what you said about the non bio-identical progesterone ingredients has me perplexed. The progesterone cream I get says "Progesterone USP" in the ingredient list, and has "natural micronised progesterone" emblazoned on the front label, it's made by, what seems to me, a reputable company, am I still slathering on useless gunk? By the way, not that this is particularly relevant or important, I'm a male who is using this, and will be using other bio-gynotrophic substances, in a DIY attempt to, as much as I am able, fully feminize myself.Thank you.
