Does anyone have experience with taking progesterone? I found two comments from @gravlek and a handful of articles, but both anecdotes and scientific evidence are scarce.
I think progesterone could be a looksmaxx in two ways. It was shown to shown to support collagen remodeling in dermal fibroblasts, contributing to skin elasticity, and hydration. When taken at night, it was shown to improve sleep depth, reduce stress and cortisol. This is due to conversion to allopregnanolone, which modulates GABA-A receptors in the brain.
I worry it could be a looksmin by suppressing the HPT axis, lowering LH and testosterone.
