Progesterone Use Criteria

Meaning

Progesterone use criteria are the established clinical guidelines and physiological parameters that dictate the appropriate initiation, dosing, and monitoring of progesterone therapy in both male and female hormonal health protocols. These criteria ensure that the use of progesterone is evidence-based, targeted to specific clinical indications, and administered within a context that maximizes therapeutic benefit while minimizing potential side effects. Key considerations include the presence of specific symptoms, baseline hormone levels, and the co-administration of other sex hormones. Adherence to these criteria is essential for safe and effective hormonal management.
