Micronized Progesterone API Powder (Rx)

Micronized progesterone is the natural female hormone progesterone formulated into very fine (“micronized”) particles so it can be absorbed better when taken. As an API (Active Pharmaceutical Ingredient), micronized progesterone is chemically identical to the progesterone made by a woman’s ovaries.

Medically, micronized progesterone is used in various hormone therapies. For example, in postmenopausal hormone replacement, it is given along with estrogen to prevent overgrowth of the uterine lining (endometrial hyperplasia) in women who still have a uterus. It is also prescribed to treat certain menstrual disorders; for instance, secondary amenorrhea (absence of menstrual periods) and other abnormal bleeding patterns. In fertility care, micronized progesterone is commonly used (often vaginally) to support the luteal phase and early pregnancy, though this use is beyond the basic label instructions.

Micronized progesterone is a prescription-only hormone medication. (In drugs.com terms, it’s essentially progesterone USP in a finely divided form, e.g. Prometrium® capsules contain 100–200 mg micronized progesterone. Because it is identical to natural progesterone, it generally has a side-effect profile similar to the body’s own hormone (e.g. it can cause drowsiness or breast tenderness, unlike some synthetic progestins).
