Ever been gas-lit by your hormones? Progesterone is a prime culprit, as can be behind early perimenopause symptoms that creep up quietly: anxiety, heart palpitations, trouble sleeping, less stress resilience and even getting up in the night to pee. You may be having regular periods, but you feel like you’re falling apart – what on earth is going on?Pippa explains the role of progesterone –- dubbed nature’s anti-depressant – and Victoria reveals why supplementing orally with it has been the biggest game-changer for her insomnia. We learn why women react differently to progesterone HRT, depending on how our body converts it. Find out how functional testing can reveal whether you are a ‘5 Alpha’ converter like Victoria, or a ‘5 Beta’ like Pippa and why knowing that can be the key to managing any hormone-related.symptoms.
