A member asked:

Will prometrium (micronized progesterone) stop night sweats in perimenopuase? do i need to use it daily if night sweats are daily?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Possibly: Every hormone has its pause. Perimenopausal night sweats can be due to abnormalities in any of your hormones. I normally check using serum or salivary hormone panels. Prometrium, (micronized progesterone) an oral form of bio-identical Progesterone has helped many of my patients over the years. It breaks down in the liver to allopregnenolone which helps with anxiety and sleep. I prescribe it for daily use.
