Preguntas frecuentes
Why is ovulation important if I don't want to get pregnant?
Because it's the way your body creates androgens, estrogen and progesterone. And those hormones make you feel good and, you know - like YOU.
This is not entirely due to the hormones themselves, but the way they communicate with the brain.
In order for your nervous system to run smoothly and not give you anxiety or affect your behavior, the ovulation process has to run its preprogrammed course without disruption.
Aging and other factors influence ovulation, and eventually we run out of eggs. With progesterone cream we can make this transition smoother.
¿Cómo lo aplico?
Esta fórmula se absorbe mejor a través de las palmas de sus manos.
Por lo general, solo se usa una pequeña cantidad de la crema y luego es suficiente simplemente frotarla en el medio de la palma con los dedos de la otra mano.
Si usa más, aplique la crema en el interior de sus antebrazos con las palmas y las dedos hasta que toda la crema se absorba.
Después de todo, la crema se absorbe en la piel, puede lavarse las manos con agua y jabón.
No permita que los niños o las mascotas entren en contacto con sus manos y piel después de haber aplicado la crema. Lávese las manos primero.
No acaricie el pelaje o la piel de sus mascotas con las manos tratadas, y no permita que las mascotas lamen su piel donde haya aplicado crema.
How & where do I apply it?
This formula is best absorbed through the palms of your hands and fingertips, where you have lots of sweat glands that act as excellent highways for the small progesterone molecules to enter your bloodstream.
For the best results, apply it to your palms, fingertips, or the soles of your feet. You can also use the groin area or face, but avoid areas with more subcutaneous fat like the belly, hips, or thighs—this makes absorption uneven. There is no need to rotate application areas.
The Application Plan:
Prep: Rinse your hands and forearms with warm water. Use soap if you have any products on your skin to ensure nothing blocks absorption.
Apply: For small amounts, rub into the center of one palm. For larger amounts, massage into your inner forearms using your palms and fingertips until absorbed.
Safety First: Keep treated skin away from children and pets. Do not pet animals or let them lick treated areas until you’ve washed your hands. Avoid sunbathing on treated skin.
Finish: Wait 15–30 minutes for full absorption. After that, you can wash your hands without losing effectiveness.
How much do I apply?
When it comes to Matriarch 20, less is more. A low dose progesterone is key to supporting ovulation, while a high dose too early in your cycle can actually disrupt it—and we definitely don't want that (though it's important to note: progesterone cream is not a reliable contraceptive).
Your Dosage Guide:
The Baseline: Use 5–10mg daily. One full pump delivers 10mg; half a pump gives you 5mg. You can split this into morning and evening doses or take it all at once. Find the rhythm that feels best for you.
For Heavy Bleeding or PMS: If you struggle during the second half of your cycle (the luteal phase), you need a higher dose. This is where you bring in the "big sister," Matriarch 100. Avoid using Matriarch 20 alone during the luteal phase, as a dose that is too low can actually worsen PMS symptoms. You need the higher concentration of Matriarch 100 for this phase.
Perimenopause: As cycles get more unpredictable, you may benefit from a little more progesterone. Use 1–2 full pumps morning and evening every day. Only take a 7-day break if a period actually arrives.
Postmenopause: Use 5–10mg daily without breaks. It's safe to use alongside MHT (Menopause Hormone Therapy), but please note: it cannot replace the prescribed progestin in your MHT—even if you were to increase the dose.
