Young Living’s Progessence Plus serum is a member favorite for so many reasons! It is an all-natural, plant-based serum made from wild yam extract, which has naturally occurring progesterone. Natural progesterone is great for helping balance your hormones without all the common side effects that tend to come along with synthetic alternatives.
To use Progessence Plus serum, you will apply it topically {meaning on your skin} before you go to bed. Some of the best places to apply are on the neck/over the thyroid, on the inner forearms, on your lower abdomen, or on the inner ankles. All of these areas work great because the skin is thin, so it absorbs quickly here. Unlike other serums or creams with progesterone, Progessence Plus does not require rotation of application spots. You can rotate it if you want to, but it is not required.
Most people I have talked with who use this product start with one or two drops, see how they feel after a week or two, and then increase from there until they find their preferred amount. You can also add a rollerball top to the bottle to have a roll-on effect if you'd like—this can make applying super easy!
This bio-identical form of progesterone is very effective and absorbs easily into the skin. The serum also has essential oils in it that are amazing for mood, balance, and nourishing the skin. I've heard so many amazing testimonies on this product for mood and hormone support for women.

If you'd like to dig in a little more on this, here is a link to a video from Dr. Dan Purser who partnered with Young Living in formulating the Progessence Plus serum. It a little long, but has some great info!
Progessence Plus is $40 wholesale, and it will last quite a while depending on how often and how many drops you are using at a time. It is close to 50 PV (which is the minimum for an Essential Rewards order), so you could add on just one other small item to an order with Progessence Plus to qualify for the 50 PV ER minimum, which will give you an additional 10-25% back in Loyalty Rewards points! Win-win!
