Important News About ProgesterAll
Dear ProgesterAll Customer,
Thank you from our hearts for using ProgesterAll. For more than 16 years, your kind words about our product and Dr. John Lee’s work have been the biggest reason we come to work every day.
As the company that makes and sells ProgesterAll worldwide, we are announcing with great sadness that we have withdrawn ProgesterAll from the market. To learn more about why we made this decision, just keep reading. If you are a U.S. resident, and you want to learn how you can keep buying high-quality progesterone creams from us at a 20% discount from retail MSRP prices, click here to learn more or just scroll down!
This decision was not one that we wanted to make. Two years ago, we decided that we need to semi-retire. So for the last two years, we have been trying to sell ProgesterAll to another company that would keep it on the market for many years to come. Sadly, we were prevented from doing this for reasons that were beyond our control. That has left us with no choice but to withdraw ProgesterAll from the market.
So you know, the Official Website of John Lee, M.D. at www.JohnLeeMD.com is still up and running, as we continue Dr. Lee’s work. This is the website where you can access all of Dr. Lee’s excellent research – including all of his books, audio/video products, and newsletters – as well as hormone test kits you can take at home. We will be posting new and exciting content on this website in the coming months, so be sure to keep visiting us!

Dr. Lee’s Guidelines for Using Natural Progesterone Creams
When it comes to using natural progesterone creams, most people have questions about how much cream to use, when to use it, and where to apply it. The instructions that come with progesterone creams often don’t answer those questions. Here are guidelines from John R. Lee, M.D., the world’s preeminent authority on natural progesterone, that we encourage you to consider using. We also encourage you to work with a healthcare provider who understands bioidentical hormones and can advise you as you seek to balance your hormones using natural means.
How Much Progesterone Cream to Use. Dr. Lee told his patients and readers to use enough cream to get a physiological dose of progesterone. A physiological dose is an amount of cream that will give your body about the same amount of progesterone that a healthy person’s body would normally make by itself.
Women who still have their periods normally make anywhere between 15 milligrams (mg) and 25 mg of progesterone per day during the luteal phase, the second half of the menstrual cycle. 20 to 25 mg is a popular daily dose of progesterone for women who still have their periods.
Women who are going or have gone through menopause often make a little less progesterone per day; 10 to 20 mg is a typical range. 10 to 15 mg is a popular daily dose of progesterone for menopausal women.
Men make the least progesterone at around 5 to 8 mg per day. 5 to 8 mg is a popular daily dose of progesterone for men.
Because we all vary in how much progesterone we normally produce, some people will feel better with a dose near the high ends of these ranges. Others will feel better with a dose near the low ends of these ranges.
People that apply more progesterone per day than physiological doses over extended periods of time may experience hormone imbalances and symptoms. The progesterone receptors on their cells may get oversaturated with progesterone and become insensitive to progesterone. That may cause hormone imbalance symptoms to return. When it comes to using a progesterone cream, more is not necessarily better! As Dr. Lee said, don’t create another hormone imbalance!
When to Apply the Cream. Dr. Lee provided careful instructions to both women and men. Please read the guidelines below that are appropriate for you. If you are a woman who has gone through menopause, use the guidelines for menopausal women.
Guidelines for Women Who Still Have Their Periods / Premenopausal Women. If you have an average 26- to 30-day menstrual cycle, you can begin your first month of progesterone cream use between day 10 to 12 of your menstrual cycle, counting the first day of your period as day 1. Continue until a day or two before your expected period, which for most women is between 26 and 30 days. If your period starts before your chosen last day, stop using the cream and begin counting again to day 10, 11, or 12. The closer you can get to using the cream when you ovulate or just after, the more in tune with your own cycle you will be.
Guidelines for Menopausal Women. The majority of menopausal women can simply apply progesterone cream for 24 to 26 days in a row of the calendar month. Then take a break from applying the progesterone cream for the last 5 to 6 days.
Guidelines for Men. Apply once per day, every day. Unlike women, men do not need to take breaks from applying progesterone. (Men who supplement at high dosage levels or supplement with multiple hormones may want to talk with their doctor about taking breaks from their hormone regimens to avoid cell receptor saturation.)
How to Apply Progesterone Creams. Gently massage the progesterone cream into areas of thinner skin where you blush such as the face, neck, upper chest, inner arms, and the palms of the hands and soles of the feet. The optimal approach is to divide your daily dose into two portions. Apply the larger portion of your daily dose at bedtime and the smaller portion in the morning, or as directed by your healthcare provider. Progesterone is a calming hormone, so applying some at night can help restful sleep. If you prefer, it is OK to just pick one time of the day when it is most convenient to use it, and apply the whole dose. Rotate areas daily to avoid saturation. Apply the progesterone cream after a warm shower or bath, and not before it. When it is used on the face, let it soak in completely before applying makeup, and do not apply it on top of makeup.
We encourage you to learn more about using natural progesterone creams and other bioidentical hormones by reading Dr. Lee’s books. The books provide a wealth of information and research that can help you achieve hormone balance using lifestyle and exercise practices, healthy foods that support hormones, and safe, natural products. Click here to learn more about Dr. Lee’s books and to purchase them.
We also encourage you to consider testing your hormone levels from time to time. Hormone tests can help you determine whether your progesterone cream is enabling your body to maintain adequate progesterone levels. They can also measure many other important hormones. We offer a number of easy-to-take hormone tests on the Official Website of John Lee, M.D. Click here to learn more about our hormone tests and to purchase them.
