CONT

Dans la grande famille des progestatifs, la progestérone micronisée est la plus proche de la progestérone endogène, elle est même dite biosimilaire. La technique de micronisation permet de transformer la progestérone en minuscules particules, ce qui permet à l'organisme de les absorber plus facilement. Sous cette forme, elle est notamment prescrite pour lutter contre les troubles du cycle et lors de la ménopause pour diminuer les troubles du climatère (sueurs, bouffées de chaleur).
