But, to us, there\u2019s no clear reason why this product\u2014as an oil\u2014would have any edge on a lotion containing the same ingredients.<\/p>\n<p>While we do like wild yam as an ingredient, there\u2019s still not enough evidence out there proving whether or not it\u2019s an effective solution when used as a topical cream, or in this case, an oil.<\/p>\n<p>The other issue with this product isn\u2019t so much the ingredients, but the fact that menopause causes a drop in both of the female sex hormones\u2014progesterone and estrogen. This product does not address estrogen levels and may only be useful for people who have low progesterone in comparison.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.dietsinreview.com\/diet_column\/top-10-menopause-supplements\/\">Our guide tacking all symptoms of menopause \u2014 hot flashes, sexual issues and mood swings \u2014 all with one pill. <\/a><\/p>\n<h5><strong>The Price and Quality of Progestelle <\/strong><\/h5>\n<p><strong>Progestelle <\/strong>is sold for $24 on both of the product\u2019s official websites\u2014though it\u2019s worth mentioning, first time buyers may receive free bottle with their order. The free bottle, according to the manufacturer is valued at $19.95, $5 less than the retail price for the same item.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Progestelle<\/strong> is also sold through Amazon, though it costs the same amount on this platform as buying direct from the manufacturer.<\/p>\n<p>This product seems relatively affordable, as compared to other products with similar ingredients and indications. It may be a bit higher, but the maker of <strong>Progestelle<\/strong> claims this product is a purer version of some of the more common plant-based progesterone creams on the market.<\/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-119305\" src=\"https:\/\/www.dietsinreview.com\/diet_column\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/07\/progestelle-compare.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1000\" height=\"500\" srcset=\"https:\/\/dietsinreview.com\/diet_column\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/07\/progestelle-compare.jpg 1000w, https:\/\/dietsinreview.com\/diet_column\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/07\/progestelle-compare-300x150.jpg 300w, https:\/\/dietsinreview.com\/diet_column\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/07\/progestelle-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\/\">Take a deeper dive into the more unconventional products for menopausal care. More after the jump.<\/a><\/p>\n<h5><strong>Business of Progestelle <\/strong><\/h5>\n<p><strong>Progestelle <\/strong>is was created by a Dr. Renwin Yee, though it appears that he\u2019s selling this product through a few different websites\u2014womhoo.com and clearwoman.com. They do have the same contact information, which can be found below.:<\/p>\n<p><strong>Phone:<\/strong> 512-275-6963<\/p>\n<p><strong>Address: <\/strong>PO Box 2592<br \/>\nCedar Park, TX 78630<\/p>\n<p>Both of the websites we came across that seem to be affiliated with Dr. Yee, the creator of <strong>Progestelle <\/strong>feel a bit disreputable. Both look messy and feature a range of fonts and call-to-action buttons.<\/p>\n<p>On the Womhoo website, there is a page that attempts to explain how this product works, but is littered with information from a Dr. Peter Eckhart, who makes claims like \u201cwomen who wear mascara experience bloating\u201d or that many healthy foods contain dangerous estrogens known as xenoestrogens.<\/p>\n<p>When we looked at the \u201cabout us\u201d page, we noticed there was a note posted, mentioning that Dr. Eckhart and Dr. Yee were the same person. Dr. Yee claims he was using Dr. Eckhart as a pen name to fit in in the medical community, but after some quick research, it appears that he was called out for using a fake name a few years back and was forced to provide an explanation.<\/p>\n<p>Additionally, the websites, and the Amazon storefront, still provide \u201cDr. Eckhart\u2019s\u201d informational pamphlet, which recommends users eliminate a number of foods, like garlic from their diets. There are no links to third party studies backing these claims, and from our perspective, this brochure undermines any credibility<strong> Progestelle <\/strong>may have had without it.<\/p>\n<h5><strong>Customer Opinions of Progestelle<\/strong><\/h5>\n<p><strong>Progestelle<\/strong> was pretty well-received by previous users. Most people appreciated the fact that this product came from yams versus a synthetic source of hormones, as man-made progesterone can have some pretty nasty effects.<\/p>\n<p>While users treated a range of conditions with this product, there were some people who did use this to deal with menopause. Here\u2019s a look at some of the feedback:<\/p>\n<p><strong>\u201cEveryone is different, and as such, will have a unique experience with Progestelle. For me, I\u2019ve found that it does do a pretty good job of addressing menopause concerns like mood swings and hot flashes.\u201d<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>\u201cI am not sure about the doctor\u2019s claims for this product. Progestelle help me sleep better and feel calm, the booklet it comes with is total nonsense that has not been confirmed by any credible sources.\u201d<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>\u201cLove the product but am completely wary of the research. It comes with a booklet claiming things like garlic have toxic estrogens and mentions going to church for forgiveness\u2014total nonsense!\u201d<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>\u201cThe amount of product needed to make the daily dose is too much. There\u2019s not enough thin skin for all this oil, plus its really messy. \u00a0Despite claims of purity, I thought this was less effective than the cream.\u201d<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>Progestelle <\/strong>had some positive results, but they seemed largely overshadowed by reports of deception on the part of the Dr. who makes this product\u2014namely, that he was citing Dr. Peter Eckhart as a collaborator, when in fact, this doctor doesn\u2019t exist.<\/p>\n<p>Several people mentioned that this product did have some effect on their condition, but that they were put off by the addition of a pamphlet that came with the product.<\/p>\n<p>This pamphlet, as we\u2019ve mentioned, has some questionable nutritional information claiming common grocery store items are dangerous or even toxic.<\/p>\n<p>Another issue that came up was the fact that this product seems to be a bit messy and requires that a lot of oil be applied to the body. Apparently, it takes a long time to dry and some consumers mentioned there wasn\u2019t enough room on their bodies.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.dietsinreview.com\/diet_column\/top-10-menopause-supplements\/\">Get a more detailed look at why some menopause products work, while others fall flat.

When questioned about this, the makers of this product seemed to dodge questions about making up a doctor to add to the booklet that comes along with this product.<\/p>\n<p>According to customers, this book claims there are dangers hiding in common health foods like garlic and rosemary, and also mentions a need to ask god for forgiveness in order to heal.\u00a0 Many users who posted reviews complained about the complete lack of science employed in this booklet, which clearly discredits any of the merits this product might actually have.<\/p>\n<p>Finally, while progesterone can be a valuable tool in treating menopause symptoms, it may not be enough to help users treat all menopause symptoms, as some might be a result of a lack of estrogen, as well.<\/p>\n<p>In the end, we\u2019ve found that <strong>Progestelle <\/strong>has some issues with transparency and may be engaging in some false advertising practices. While the product itself could be safe, there are simply too many red flags for us to feel comfortable offering up a recommendation.<\/p>\n<p>After reviewing <a href=\"https:\/\/www.dietsinreview.com\/diet_column\/05\/femmetrinol-review\/\">Femmetrinol<\/a> in comparison to a\u00a0 number of other solutions \u2014 creams, oils, pills and more \u2014 we have found that this product is best for helping users quickly improve symptoms associated with menopause.
