Understanding Menopause
Many perimenopausal women are deficient in progesterone because they ovulate less frequently and even if ovulating each month have a significantly reduced progesterone output. Their hormones are unbalanced as they head towards menopause. Menopause itself adds a complication to the overall hormonal picture because estrogen levels also decline.
A very common misunderstanding with estrogen and menopause is that estrogen levels fall to zero once the monthly periods stop. At menopause when all ovulation ceases (and progesterone levels fall to zero) estrogen-dominant perimenopausal women often find their symptoms get worse.
Evaluate your symptoms with the online Progesterone Deficiency Symptoms assessment quiz.
This free booklet explains menopause and other conditions and symptoms related to inadequate progesterone production. These are summarized in the Progesterone booklet displayed opposite.

Subject: RE: FW: Andro-Feme bio-identical testosterone cream for women
Dear Michael,
Thanks once again for your personal concern and attention.
My sincere gratitude toyou for your willingness to assist, and to Lawley Pharmaceuticals for offering such a fabulous product to overseas customers like myself, who otherwise would have little or no available access to topical testosterone cream.
My hat is off to you and Lawley in both respects. Thank you from the bottom of my heart for your advice and readiness to serve. Please let me know at once if I am mistaken that I can count on the activite ingredients in Andro-Feme to remain stable for at least a year after the tube has been opened.
In genuine appreciation,
- Dr. Z.

Lawley orders delayed in US Customs
Dear Ms. H.,
Your recent order HS41xxx was shipped on the 2011-08-03 with Tracking number ES0009xxxxxx
I am writing to notify you of a delay in some orders being transited through US Customs.
We have been advised by Australia Post that the US Federal Aviation Authority (FAA) shutdown on the 22nd July 2011 was due to no future funding as a result of US Congress delays in raising the debt ceiling. As a result, there was a major slowing of US Customs clearance of imported goods.
On 5th August the 4,000 furloughed FAA workers returned to work and shipments are now being processed and delivered.
If your order has not as yet arrived we anticipate that it will arrive within the next week because there is a considerable back-log to shift.
The status of your order can be viewed at

If by the 15th August 2011 you have not received your order please advise us by email or Toll free phone 1-800-961-7813 and we will re-ship a replacement order.
We thank you for your patience and trust you can appreciate this issue has been totally out of our control.
Yours sincerely

Many thanks for such a wonderful product.
My GP suggested I try the Progesterone Cream for a variety of Menopausal symptoms.
She said it might take a month or so before I notice any changes. Well, it only took a week!
The hot flushes and the sweats have diminished about 90% in a very short time. The sudden surges of what I can only describe a getting a huge fright are no longer plaguing me.
I read with great interest all the info I could get re the effect of Progesterone and it all makes such perfect sense.
Your research and resultant product is really helping me and I am sure lots of other women as well.
With kindest regards and sincere thanks,
- Noni
