Progesterone Capsules

Oral progesterone, taken at night — the quiet partner to estrogen in menopause care.

Progesterone capsules are taken once a day, usually at bedtime. For women with a uterus who take estrogen, progesterone protects the uterine lining. Many women also find it settling at night. Your clinician decides whether you need it, and whether it's prescribed alongside estrogen or, in some cases, on its own.

Why progesterone

The other hormone that matters.

Progesterone is the other key hormone that declines as you move through perimenopause and into menopause. Alongside estrogen, it's a central part of how the body's hormone balance shifts during this stage of life.

Its most important role in hormone therapy is protecting the uterine lining. For a woman who has a uterus and takes estrogen, estrogen on its own can thicken the lining over time and raise endometrial risk — progesterone is added to counter that. Often this is micronized progesterone.

It's typically taken at night because many women find it settling at bedtime. Whether you need progesterone — and at what dose — is a decision your clinician makes based on your history, whether you have a uterus, and how you're using estrogen.

Using it

A simple capsule, taken at night. Tuned to you.

1
Take it at bedtime
Progesterone is usually taken once a day at night. It can cause drowsiness in some women, which is one reason it's taken before bed rather than in the morning. Your clinician chooses a starting strength based on your history.
2
Continuous or cyclical
Your clinician decides whether you take progesterone every day or on a cyclical schedule, depending on how it's paired with estrogen and your individual situation. They'll explain the plan that fits your picture.
3
Ongoing · Care, not just refills
Your plan includes clinician check-ins, dose adjustment, and side-effect support, along with a clear conversation about how progesterone works with your overall hormone therapy.

Side effects & safety

What to know before you start.

Most common: drowsiness or dizziness — which is why progesterone is taken at bedtime — along with breast tenderness, bloating, mood changes, or headache. Take it at night and avoid driving or operating machinery right after your dose until you know how it affects you.

Worth knowing: progesterone is generally used together with estrogen to protect the uterine lining for women who have a uterus. Tell your clinician your full health history and all the medications you take so they can prescribe safely.

Not appropriate for everyone: certain conditions and unexplained vaginal bleeding mean progesterone may not be right for you — your clinician reviews your history before prescribing. If a formulation is suspended in peanut oil, a peanut allergy matters; your clinician and pharmacy will confirm the formulation you receive.

Questions

Answers to
common questions.

Do I take this with estrogen?
Usually yes if you have a uterus and take estrogen.
For women who have a uterus and take estrogen, progesterone is generally added to protect the uterine lining. In some cases it's prescribed on its own. Your clinician decides whether you need it and how it fits with the rest of your hormone therapy.
Why do I take it at night?
Many women find it settling, and it can cause drowsiness.
Progesterone is usually taken at bedtime because many women find it settling at night, and because it can cause drowsiness. Taking it before bed keeps that effect out of your day. Your clinician will confirm the timing that's right for you.
What if I miss a dose?
Don't double up — follow your prescribing instructions.
If you miss a dose, take it when you remember unless it's already close to your next one — in that case skip the missed dose and continue as usual. Don't take two doses to make up for one. Your prescribing instructions cover this, and you can message your clinician with any questions.
When am I charged?
Not until a clinician confirms your eligibility.
You're not charged when you submit. Your card is saved. A licensed clinician reviews your assessment, typically within 24 hours. If approved, you'll be notified by email before the first charge. If not approved, you're not charged.
Can I cancel?
Yes — with full transparency on what you've committed to.
Yes. The monthly plan can be cancelled anytime before your next ship date. The quarterly plan is a committed term — cancel future renewals after the term ends.
Can I use my FSA/HSA?
Yes — itemized receipts provided for self-submission.
Yes. HSA and FSA cards are accepted on any plan. We also provide itemized receipts in case you need to self-submit to your benefits provider.
