Progesterone Deficiency: The Hidden Reason You Can't Sleep, Think, or Stop Bleeding


Listen Later

Feel anxious, exhausted, and like your period is out of control—even though your labs are normal?

You might be dealing with low progesterone, the most overlooked hormone in women's health. While estrogen and testosterone get all the attention, progesterone plays a critical role in calming the brain, improving sleep, stabilizing mood, and balancing your cycle.

In this episode, I'll break down the most common symptoms of progesterone deficiency (that most doctors miss), why it's so common in perimenopause, and how stress, endocrine disruptors, and skipped ovulation can all lead to hormone chaos.

💡 I'll also share my favorite ways to support low progesterone naturally—including the one supplement that changed everything for me.
