No, Natural progesterone cream will relieve most menopausal symptoms, i.e. hot flashes, profuse night sweats, etc., without the serious side effects of synthetic hormone replacement therapy.

Scientific studies have shown that many of the following symptoms and conditions may be caused by excess estrogen ingestion and alleviated by use of a transdermal natural progesterone cream (NPC). 

Why Do Many Women Need Supplemental Progesterone?

All estrogen without the balance of progesterone  will increase cell proliferation and can be precursors or causes of cancer (breast, uterus, cervix, ovaries, etc.) and can cause EOS (estrogen overload syndrome).  We are living in a sea of estrogen.  From the birth control pill to hormone replacement therapy HRT to synthetic chemicals to Phyto estrogens, we ingest estrogen from youth to grave.   Environmental and food sources which contain high levels of estrogen like compounds may cause symptoms of EOS (estrogen overload syndrome), even if you never used the birth control pill or HRT.  The use of a natural progesterone will curtail the cellular proliferation effects of estrogen.  In nature the body regulates the production of estrogen and progesterone.
