Can Progesteron help with Wechseljahre?

Whether progesterone can help with menopause is a clinically relevant question, but the provided context contains no specific data on this topic. In general, hormone replacement therapy (HRT) often includes progesterone (or progestins) to protect the endometrium when estrogen is given – this reduces the risk of uterine cancer. For women without a uterus, progesterone is usually unnecessary. Progesterone may also improve sleep and reduce hot flashes, but the evidence is moderate and not uniform across all symptoms. Importantly, HRT is not a lifestyle product; it is a medically supervised therapy with benefits and risks (e.g., increased thromboembolism risk, possible breast cancer risk with long-term use). The sources in the context (mybody-x articles on weight loss, gut health, DNA tests) provide no evidence regarding progesterone or menopause. Therefore, I recommend consulting a gynecologist, having your hormone status individually assessed, and making a shared decision about therapy. Evidence grade: human-moderate (based on general clinical studies, not on the given context).
