Based on their blog post describing the use of this product for menopause, the makers of this product claim it is meant to be used as an alternative to other wild yam creams. Yet, the product page mentions the skin care benefits it has to offer with little reference to its hormone-balancing potential.<\/p>\n<p>The website also claims that this product uses essential oils to increase the absorption of the wild yam extract. We\u2019ve seen some evidence that peppermint may increase the uptake of antioxidants when ingested, but there\u2019s no scientific data listed on the site demonstrating this as fact.<\/p>\n<p>Likely, the makers of this product are using this product as a means to increase the price on a blend of essential oils.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.dietsinreview.com\/diet_column\/top-10-menopause-supplements\/\">Get the latest on which menopause products are the most effective for your most disruptive symptoms \u2013 click the link for more.<\/a><\/p>\n<h5><strong>The Price and Quality of Progessence Plus Serum<\/strong><\/h5>\n<p><strong>Progessence Plus Serum<\/strong> is out of stock on the official website, thought the list price $49.34. It looks like they also sell this product wholesale, but we\u2019re not sure where else this is sold, aside from Amazon.<\/p>\n<p>The Amazon listing shows the product at $43.45, though apparently there is only one unit of <strong>Progessence Plus Serum<\/strong> left in stock.<\/p>\n<p>The retail price on this item seems rather high. It\u2019s nearly $50 for a small bottle of essential oils, containing only one active ingredient, wild yam. The other ingredients are peppermint and bergamot essential oils, as well as vitamin E \u2014 none of which retail for more than $10 per unit.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.dietsinreview.com\/diet_column\/top-10-menopause-supplements\/\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-118713\" src=\"https:\/\/www.dietsinreview.com\/diet_column\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/05\/Progessence-Plus-Serum-compare.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1000\" height=\"500\" srcset=\"https:\/\/dietsinreview.com\/diet_column\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/05\/Progessence-Plus-Serum-compare.jpg 1000w, https:\/\/dietsinreview.com\/diet_column\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/05\/Progessence-Plus-Serum-compare-300x150.jpg 300w, https:\/\/dietsinreview.com\/diet_column\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/05\/Progessence-Plus-Serum-compare-768x384.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1000px) 100vw, 1000px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.dietsinreview.com\/diet_column\/top-10-menopause-supplements\/\">Click to learn whether a cream-based treatment or a supplement works best for your menopause symptoms.<\/a><\/p>\n<h5><strong>Business of Progessence Plus Serum<\/strong><\/h5>\n<p><strong>Progessence Plus Serum<\/strong> is made by an essential oils company known as Young Living. As per their website, their contact information can be found below:<\/p>\n<p><strong>Phone: <\/strong>800-371-3515<\/p>\n<p><strong>Address: <\/strong>Thanksgiving Point Business Park<br \/>\n3125 Executive Parkway<br \/>\nLehi, UT 84043<\/p>\n<p>The Young Living website looks nice, and is easy to navigate. The homepage features a number of upcoming events and various products, most of which are traditional essential oils you might put in a diffuser at home.<\/p>\n<p>Young Living also has a blog that discusses health, wellness and lifestyle and they sell a number of supplements and topical treatments that use essential oils in the blend.<\/p>\n<p>Unfortunately, <strong>Progessence Plus Serum <\/strong>is currently out of stock and doesn\u2019t appear to be sold elsewhere. There is an Amazon listing, but they\u2019ve only got one unit left. The site does not mention if this will be back in stock any time soon, or if it has been discontinued.<\/p>\n<p>In looking at the <strong>Progessence Plus Serum<\/strong> product page, it seems that the suggested use for this product is geared more toward women who are looking to prevent the visible signs of aging, though their related blog post mentions the benefits this product has for menopausal women.<\/p>\n<p>The conflicting information, as well as the fact that this company primarily specializes in essential oils makes it a bit confusing from a consumer perspective. We don\u2019t know if users can expect an alternative to other progesterone creams or if this is primarily used for its pleasant scent and potential skin care benefits.<\/p>\n<h5><strong>Customer Opinions of Progessence Plus Serum<\/strong><\/h5>\n<p>There aren\u2019t too many reviews for<strong> Progessence Plus Serum<\/strong>. The website features some comments, as does the product\u2019s Amazon listing. Here\u2019s a look at what we found posted on the web:<\/p>\n<p><strong>\u201cSadly, this product did not work for me. I gave this a try for several weeks and didn\u2019t find any relief.\u201d<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>\u201cFelt like this product did help me sleep better, but failed to do anything for my hot flashes. I\u2019d keep using this, but the price keeps rising. Not worth it.\u201d<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>\u201cLuckily I used this under the guidance of a naturopath. My cycle was delayed and those using this on their own may find that they have similar issues.\u201d<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>\u201cI don\u2019t know if this did the trick, but after trying to conceive for over a year, I finally got pregnant. Not sure there\u2019s a definite correlation, but it must have done something.\u201d<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>Progessence Plus Serum <\/strong>doesn\u2019t have enough of a track record for us to know whether or not it\u2019s a good product, or if it stacks up against competing progesterone creams.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.dietsinreview.com\/diet_column\/top-10-menopause-supplements\/\">Reclaim your energy, sex drive and more\u2014the best menopause products after the jump.<\/a><\/p>\n<!-- Widget Shortcode --><div id=\"execphp-26\" class=\"widget widget_execphp widget-shortcode area-btn-sb \">\t\t\t<div class=\"execphpwidget\"><div class=\"table-before-c\">text3<\/div><\/div>\n\t\t<\/div><!-- \/Widget Shortcode -->\n<h5><strong>Conclusion &#8211; Does Progessence Plus Serum Work?<\/strong><\/h5>\n<p>After looking at <strong>Progessence Plus Serum <\/strong>a bit more closely, we believe that there are better ways to address menopause symptoms.<\/p>\n<p>We liked the natural approach to providing progesterone to users in a serum that likely smells quite nice\u2014something users often claim is missing in other topical products. But, we\u2019re not sure this product is clear on what its intended use is.<\/p>\n<p>We also don\u2019t really know if it works. We found some comments about this product, and most users mentioned it hadn\u2019t started working and were asking further questions. Additionally, we don\u2019t have much information regarding of whether this product has successfully helped users deal with their menopausal symptoms, or even it if worked to visibly improve aging skin.<\/p>\n<p>Another concern is, we don\u2019t know if this product is coming back in stock. It could be temporarily unavailable, but there\u2019s no message to shoppers letting them know if it will be back or if it has been discontinued.<\/p>\n<p>There are a lot of small issues with <strong>Progessence Plus Serum<\/strong> that lead us to believe that those who truly need a treatment for hot flashes and night sweats may be better off trying something that has undergone clinical testing and has several positive reviews posted online.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.dietsinreview.com\/diet_column\/05\/femmetrinol-review\/\">Femmetrinol<\/a> is the daily supplement our experts recommend for treating the hot flashes, changing moods, night sweats and other symptoms that emerge during menopause.
