How to sleep better

If you are one of the women aged 40 and above who find it difficult to sleep, know now that you’re not alone. 

Many women wake up in every night between 12 mid night and 4 am and start prowling around the house, in frustration you may begin pacing the house, cleaning the kitchen floor, surfing the internet or watching movies on late night TV. Getting good night sleep becomes more and more difficult as we age, but women in menopause find it particularly difficult to get good night’s sleep. 

In many cases this inability to sleep is due to too much estrogen in your system that is not balanced by progesterone. Before menopause, estrogen is the dominant hormone for about the first two weeks in the menstrual cycle. When menopause occurs naturally these two hormones should continue to balance each other, but if you’re a woman at menopause leading a stressful lifestyle, you may find that  your production of progesterone is suppressed and or converted to stress hormones and you will have a dominance of estrogen in your system leading to sleeplessness and other unpleasant menopausal symptoms. 

Using a little progesterone cream made from natural bio identical plant sources may help you easily solve this problem. The right way to use progesterone cream or oil is to use about 1/8 to ¼ of a teaspoon daily for three weeks out of the month, with a week off each month to maintain sensitivity of the progesterone receptors. Natural progesterone cream made from bio identical plant sources is not the same as the synthetic hormone progestin, which is made from animal sources.
