The Progesterone Myth Women Over 40 Still Believe

Chaste tree berry, evening primrose oil, wild yam cream — can any of these actually replace progesterone? Or are you wasting your money? In this episode, Dr. Carrie Jones breaks down exactly how these natural options work in the body, how they're different from bioidentical progesterone, and why timing matters so much more than most people realize. From the prolactin connection with chaste tree to the wild yam myth that's been circulating for decades, this is the honest breakdown you need before deciding what's right for you. You'll also learn why these natural options tend to work better earlier in your hormone journey, why they often stop working once you're solidly in perimenopause, and whether you can safely combine them with progesterone therapy. Because you deserve real answers, not internet myths. 🌟 Want to learn more about estrogen and progesterone?
