Progesterone for Men: The Feel-Good Hormone

*The results described are not typical and will vary based on a variety of factors.

Progesterone

Progesterone is known as our calming, mood, sleep, libido and bone-enhancing hormone.  What a lot of men also don’t realize is Progesterone functions as a precursor in our body to produce Testosterone while also acting as a balance to decrease estrogen.  As men age the level of progesterone starts to decrease.  Natural production by the testes and adrenals in men starts to decrease with aging and can lead to an imbalance, not only of progesterone, but also lead to decreased testosterone and an increase of estrogen.  Balance between Testosterone, Progesterone and male Estrogen is the key to being healthy.

Symptoms of Progesterone Imbalance Look Very Similar to Testosterone Imbalance:

• Decreased or lack of energy

• Decrease in  libido or sex drive

• Difficulty in sexual arousal with weaker erections
