Why Progesterone Matters

Progesterone isn’t just for periods or fertility.
It’s your calm.
Your focus.
Your anti-anxiety anchor.
Your body’s natural anti-inflammatory.

When progesterone is low, you may feel:

  • PMS that hijacks your emotions

  • Spotting before your period

  • Short or irregular luteal phases

  • Breast tenderness, bloating, and sleep issues

  • Feeling like you’re constantly unraveling—even when you’re doing “everything right”

 


 

Why It Drops

Low progesterone isn’t random. It can happen when:

  • You’re not ovulating consistently

  • Your cortisol is stealing the show

  • Estrogen is dominating the scene

  • Your liver is congested

  • Your gut isn’t detoxing properly

  • Or you’re burned out, depleted, and emotionally overwhelmed

 


 

THE WELLHISTIC PROGESTERONE PLAN

Support Your Cycle. Reset Your Resilience.

 


 

PHASE 1: Day 1–14 (Follicular Phase)

Goal: Support high-quality ovulation
Because no ovulation = no progesterone.

 


 

1. Clear Out Estrogen

Excess estrogen can block progesterone and worsen PMS.

Use ingredients like:

  • Milk Thistle

  • Dandelion Root

  • Broccoli Extract (Sulforaphane)

  • Optional: Calcium D-Glucarate

All found in Wellhistic Hormone + PMS Support

 


 

2. Support Liver & Gut Drainage

You can’t build balance if you can’t clear out the old.

Daily support:

  • Warm lemon water

  • 30g+ fiber

  • 1+ daily bowel movement

  • Castor oil packs 3x/week

  • Magnesium citrate if needed (found in THYROID SUPPORT)

 


 

3. Add Magnesium + B6

They help regulate ovulation, blood sugar, and nervous system stability.

  • Magnesium (malate or glycinate): 300–400 mg

  • B6 (as P5P): 25–50 mg
    Found in CALM and THYROID SUPPORT

 


 

4. Take Vitex (Chaste Tree)

Gently encourages progesterone through ovulation support.

  • Take in the morning

  • Found in Hormone + PMS Support

  • Avoid if using bioidentical hormones unless guided

 


 

5. Balance Your Blood Sugar

Stable blood sugar = lower cortisol = better progesterone.

  • Eat protein + fat within 1 hour of waking

  • Avoid fasting in this phase

  • Use Inositol (in your PMS formula) if prone to crashes or cravings

 


 

6. Support Nervous System Calm

Chronic stress blocks hormone output at the brain level.

For emotional steadiness, use:

  • Passionflower, Licorice, and Magnesium (found in CALM and THYROID SUPPORT)

  • Breathwork, nature walks, boundaries, and tech breaks

 


 

PHASE 2: Day 15–28 (Luteal Phase)

Goal: Support and protect progesterone production

 


 

Add: Progesterone Cream (if needed)

  • Start around Day 17

  • Use 20–30mg/day

  • Apply to soft areas (arms, thighs, belly)

  • Stop on Day 1 of your next red flow

 


 

Continue: Hormone + PMS Support

In this phase, it supports:
✔️ Hormonal regulation: Vitex, Dong Quai, Black Cohosh
✔️ Liver detox: Milk Thistle, Broccoli Extract
✔️ PMS pain relief: Cramp Bark, Peony
✔️ Mood and inflammation: Rhodiola, Inositol, B6

 


 

Your Daily Plan:

  1. Take 2 capsules of Hormone + PMS Support with breakfast

  2. Support detox + minerals daily (lemon water, magnesium, fiber)

  3. Add CALM or THYROID SUPPORT if emotional stress or nervous system burnout is present

  4. Begin progesterone cream around Day 17 if needed

 


 

The Wellhistic Choice

Hormonal healing isn’t a surface fix.
It’s a system reset—from ovulation to detox to emotional repair.

You don’t need another cycle of symptom-chasing.
You need a protocol that understands you.

This is what it means to feel well… to feel Wellhistic.
