How Are Progesterone 100 Mg Tablets Taken For Menopausal Symptoms?
I am a 53 year old woman. I ve been experiencing all of the 10 symptoms listed in your preview. For the last year or so i ve been using a cream from Arbonne for menopausal symptoms. The cream was working very well until about 4 weeks ago. My doctor prescribed Progesterone 100 mg. The caps are to be inserted vaginally every night before bed. I haven t started using this drug yet. My question is, am I supposed to use this all the time or take a break every 25 days like I do with the cream? Can I use it every few days insead of daily?
