Progesterone Cream and Pregnancy
By  Lori Ramsey of Stages-inPregnancy.com

 

The use of progesterone cream and pregnancy go hand in hand.  Ideally our bodies produce a sufficient amount of progesterone and can maintain a pregnancy just fine.  But when progesterone is low it can cause a whole stack of problems from miscarriage to preterm labor and premature birth.   

Opinions vary on how to use progesterone cream during pregnancy.  Some say to use it for only the first 7 weeks – while others say to use it until the 38^th week.  Which is right?  The answer depends on whether or not you have low progesterone.  And even if you don’t have low progesterone it’s perfectly safe to use progesterone cream all the way through.    

The medical community is discovering that progesterone – in the form of vaginal suppositories, oral pills or transdermal cream may help to prevent early miscarriages and preterm labor.  There are even progesterone shots available now in the USA given to women at risk for preterm labor.  The pharmaceutical companies push for the pills, suppositories and shots, because those must be prescribed by a physician, rather than over-the-counter, as is the case with the Happy PMS cream. 

The truth of the matter is that a natural progesterone cream such as Happy PMS Cream is just as effective as their prescription counterparts.  There are now doctors that will tell their patients to go find a good progesterone cream if preterm labor is a factor.  But sadly the vast majority of conventional medical doctors don’t know the benefits of natural progesterone cream.  This is due mostly because they’ve not been educated about it.  However the tide is slowly turning and more doctors are becoming aware of the benefits of the cream.

I am so passionate about progesterone cream and pregnancy because I have used it with great success.  My own personal testimony tells of how wonderful it has benefited me.  First when I was on the search for the perfect natural progesterone cream I researched many brands.  When I finally discovered Happy PMS Cream – I wanted to use it first before making recommendations to others.

Prior to using Happy PMS Cream I had a history of early miscarriage and preterm labor and premature birth.  I had given birth to my first two babies at 35 and 36 weeks.  I had an early miscarriage between the two. 

When I became pregnant with my third baby I was on a different brand of cream.  I used it for 7 weeks then stopped.  My pregnancy was plagued with preterm labor.  I went into full labor at 30 weeks followed by 7 weeks of bedrest.

When I became pregnant with my fourth baby just 14 months after my third baby’s birth I was so scared.  For one thing my luteal phase was only 9 days long and that’s too short to maintain a pregnancy.  It was that month that I began using Happy PMS Cream.   The manufacturer suggested that I stay on the cream through my pregnancy –until my 38^th week.  That pregnancy was the most perfect pregnancy.  Not only did I carry my baby full term she went 2 days over.  I was calling the manufacturer back asking how to reverse the effects! 

Needless to say, this experience made a true believer out of me.  I have used Happy PMS Cream ever since – and went on to use it with my fifth pregnancy – which went as planned with no preterm labor!

Pregnant women produce an incredible amount of progesterone, but if there is a deficiency of progesterone during a woman’s pregnancy, it can make the pregnancy very difficult..  My own experiences prove this.  I believe that the progesterone cream saved my pregnancies.  So to me progesterone cream and pregnancy go hand in hand.
