Clinical Protocol

7-Day Progesterone Support Plan

A nutrition strategy to support corpus luteum health and progesterone production, vital for cycle balance and calm.

Protocol Objectives
Vitamin C

The ovaries contain high concentrations of Vitamin C. Studies show supplementation boosts progesterone levels.

Vitamin B6

Essential for corpus luteum function. Tuna, turkey, and potatoes are good sources.

Zinc

Zinc is required for FSH production, which triggers ovulation (the precursor to progesterone production).

Stress Reduction

The 'Cortisol Steal': Chronic stress uses pregnenolone to make cortisol instead of progesterone. Relax to boost P.
