Episode 310: Ways to Naturally Increase Progesterone
Progesterone has always been an unsung hero in our eyes, but now it’s getting its time in the sun - which is a good thing! Progesterone is super important for mood regulation, brain clarity, and thyroid health. That being said, it’s a very common hormone imbalance and the conventional solution is to treat with synthetic Progestin. At Team FN, we start with a root cause approach. Today we’re going to talk about WHY low progesterone is so common, how to identify if you have it, and what you can do about it.
