A member asked:

I was wondering if the progesterone cream would help me with me not ovulating or my growing hair in my stomach? i feel like i have a lot of hormones!

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Prog cream: Prog cream will not induce ovulation in most cases, I suggest that nor will it decrease hair on stomach. If you think that your hormones are off I suggest that you get a work up including hormone levels on day 2 or 3 of your cycle. This would include FSH, LH, Estradiol, Progesterone, Prolactin and thyroid levels. I like free T4, free T3 (liothyronine) and TSH. A reproductive endocrinologist view them.
