Some pearls here and tricks of the trade to stay balanced and sleep better during this holiday season or any stressed routines. 🤩

When your routine is stressed, your adrenals steal your progesterone and then the domino effect starts… sleepless nights, perhaps breakthrough bleeding or spotting, high cortisol levels…. Sound familiar?

If any of these symptoms are presented, then you may need to titrate your progesterone up for a bit.

This hormone does WAY more than you think—and most people are missing it.

Progesterone isn’t just about reproduction. It’s one of the body’s most important balancing hormones—and when levels are low, your entire system can feel off.

✨ Progesterone supports:
• Calm mood & better sleep
• Healthy brain & nervous system function
• Balanced blood sugar & metabolism
• Bone health
• Estrogen balance

When progesterone is depleted (often from stress, aging, or synthetic hormones), symptoms like anxiety, poor sleep, weight changes, and hormone imbalance can show up quietly—but persistently.

Understanding progesterone isn’t just helpful—it’s essential for whole-body hormone health.

Feeling on edge this holiday season?

Your body might not just be stressed — it’s flooded with adrenaline.

When adrenaline runs high for too long:
🍫 You crave sugar to “calm” your body
💢 Your muscles stay tense and tight
🌙 You struggle to fall — or stay — asleep

That’s because adrenaline isn’t just a stress hormone. It’s a biochemical chain reaction that drives sugar swings, anxiety, and insomnia — especially when combined with caffeine, skipped meals, or constant pressure to “do it all.”

But here’s the good news: you can calm your system naturally.

Dr. Platt calls this state Adrenaline Dominance, and it’s reversible with the right fuel, rhythm, and hormone balance support.

🌙 Bedtime Snack Hack for Better Sleep
Feeling wired instead of rested? When your brain goes into over-drive overnight, it’s often because it’s running out of fuel—and triggers a surge of adrenaline. According to Dr. Platt’s Adrenaline Protocol, the solution is simple: offer the brain the right fuel before bed.

Here’s your go-to snack: low-glycemic vegetables + MCT oil. Why? The veggies deliver steady glucose + the MCT oil creates ketones—both of which calm adrenaline and help your brain settle into sleep mode.

Try it tonight: chop up some zucchini or green beans, add a drizzle of MCT oil (or tablespoon coconut oil), and relax into your best sleep yet.

Your brain will thank you. 😴

For WAY too long, the role of progesterone in medical training, including Dr. Platt's own, was narrowly taught as primarily protecting the lining of the womb. This limited perception has unfortunately overshadowed the systemic, profound impact this vital hormone has on nearly every cell in your body. When in fact, progesterone is the most important hormone after a hysterectomy. However, many doctors still only prescribe synthetic estradiol after a hysterectomy when likely that is what caused the issue to have one in the first place.

About one in seven U.S. women aged 18 and older (≈14.6% age-adjusted) report having had a hysterectomy.

A reasonable estimate is that around 20% of hysterectomies in the U.S. are performed due to heavy or abnormal uterine bleeding / menorrhagia. The older references suggest this, though they may not reflect current data.

Just a few reasons to supplement with Progesterone:

-You still have breasts that need protection from estrogen dominance.
-Cognitive Function
-Mood Stability
-Bone Health
-Nerve Health
-Prostrate Health

When discussing progesterone for HRT, it's vital to understand that not all progesterone is the same. Dr. Platt strongly advocates for natural, body-identical progesterone, which is biochemically identical to what your body produces.

• Micronized Progesterone: This is the most common form of body-identical progesterone taken by cream or suppositories for therapeutic purposes.

• Synthetic Progestogens: In contrast, synthetic progestogens (like those found in many contraceptives or the Mirena coil) are chemically altered. They bind to receptors differently, sometimes blocking the beneficial actions of natural progesterone. Many instances of "progesterone intolerance" (mood changes, bloating, skin issues) are actually caused by these synthetic versions, not the body-identical progesterone.

Why do we have vaginal dryness?

The most common cause is due to a natural decline in estrogen. However, there are many other reasons that can affect lubrication “down there” which include medications, breast feeding, douching, cancer treatments, stress and anxiety.

Vaginal atrophy, also known as atrophic vaginitis, is a condition characterized by the thinning, drying, and inflammation of the vaginal walls due to a decrease in estrogen levels. This condition commonly occurs during and after menopause but can also affect women who have decreased estrogen for other reasons, such as after childbirth, during breastfeeding, or due to certain medical treatments.

Estriol that can help alleviate vaginal dryness, a common symptom of menopause and other hormonal imbalances in just 10-14 days then a minimum dose every week or every other week. Here’s how each hormone contributes to improving vaginal dryness.

The benefits include:
-Improved libido
-Regain confidence
-Restored moisture
-Revived intimacy
-Improved bladder control
-Less pain & irritation

If you’ve started noticing dryness, irritation, or discomfort — it’s not just a part of getting older.

As estrogen levels shift, the delicate vaginal tissue loses moisture and elasticity — but you can restore comfort naturally.
