Women’s Hormone Wellness: Understanding Progessence Plus Serum
Hormones are an important part of a woman’s overall well-being, and they naturally change throughout different stages of life. From the menstrual cycle to pregnancy, postpartum life, perimenopause, and menopause, our bodies continually adapt to changing hormonal patterns.
With so much conversation around “hormone balance,” it can be difficult to separate general wellness information from claims that may overpromise what a particular product can do.
At Revolutionary Wellness, we believe in taking a thoughtful, informed approach.
One product that many women are curious about is Young Living’s Progessence Plus™ Serum.
What is Progessence Plus?
Progessence Plus is a topical serum formulated specifically for women. According to Young Living, the formula contains USP-grade progesterone from wild yam extract, along with plant-based ingredients and essential oils including Copaiba, Sacred Frankincense, Cedarwood, Bergamot, Peppermint, and Clove.
Young Living describes the serum as promoting feelings of relaxation, harmony, balance, and well-being, while its plant-based ingredients help nourish and moisturize the skin.
The serum is designed to be easily incorporated into a daily self-care routine and has a pleasant aromatic experience that many women enjoy.
Why is progesterone part of the conversation?
Progesterone is one of the naturally occurring hormones involved in the female reproductive system. Hormone levels naturally fluctuate throughout the menstrual cycle and change as women move through different stages of life.
This is one reason conversations about women’s wellness often include progesterone, estrogen, and other hormones.
However, hormone health is highly individual.
Factors such as age, menstrual status, medications, health history, pregnancy status, stress, sleep, nutrition, and other aspects of lifestyle can all be relevant when someone is experiencing changes in how they feel.
For that reason, it is important not to assume that a particular symptom automatically means that a specific hormone is “too low” or “out of balance.”
What does the research say about topical progesterone?
Researchers have studied transdermal progesterone in women, including postmenopausal women. Some studies have reported potential effects on certain symptoms, while other controlled studies have not found meaningful changes in symptoms or biological markers.
The research is therefore not conclusive, and studies of progesterone creams cannot automatically be interpreted as evidence that Progessence Plus will produce a particular health outcome.
This distinction is important.
Research on an ingredient or a similar formulation is not necessarily research on the finished product itself.
At Revolutionary Wellness, we believe wellness education should acknowledge both what is known and where the evidence is still developing.
A simple way to think about Progessence Plus
Rather than thinking of Progessence Plus as a product that “fixes” or “balances” hormones, consider it as one component of a broader women’s wellness practice.
A woman’s wellness routine may include:
Nourishing, balanced meals
Regular movement
Adequate hydration
Quality sleep
Stress-management practices
Time for relaxation and restoration
Mindful personal-care products
Connection and community
Appropriate medical and wellness care
Products that fit comfortably into her individual routine
Progessence Plus can be part of that personal-care routine for women who choose to use it.
What makes the serum unique?
Progessence Plus combines USP-grade progesterone with an aromatic blend of essential oils.
The formula includes:
Copaiba
A warm, grounding aromatic note.
Sacred Frankincense
A classic essential oil frequently incorporated into personal-care and wellness practices.
Cedarwood
Known for its warm, woody aroma.
Bergamot
A bright citrus aroma that contributes to the serum’s overall scent profile.
Peppermint
Adds a fresh, cooling aromatic character.
Clove
Provides a warm, spicy component to the blend.
Together, these ingredients create a distinctive topical serum designed for women.
How is Progessence Plus used?
Young Living’s current directions recommend applying 2–4 drops daily to the stomach, feet, or inner thighs and rotating application sites so the same area is not used two days in a row. The product should not be applied more than twice daily.
Always follow the current product label and manufacturer’s directions rather than relying on information from older product literature or third-party sources.
An important note about hormone health
Progessence Plus should not be viewed as a replacement for individualized medical care.
If you are experiencing significant changes in your menstrual cycle, persistent symptoms, fertility concerns, unusual bleeding, or other health concerns, talk with an appropriately qualified healthcare professional.
Young Living also recommends consulting a health professional before using Progessence Plus if you are pregnant, nursing, taking medication, or have a medical condition.
Your hormones are part of a complex biological system. Supporting overall wellness is about looking at the whole person rather than assuming that one product—or one hormone—is the answer.
Our approach at Revolutionary Wellness
We believe natural wellness works best when it is approached with curiosity, education, and personal awareness.
Products such as Progessence Plus can be one option within a broader self-care routine, but they don’t need to carry the burden of being a “magic solution.”
Instead, we can focus on creating supportive daily practices that help us feel more connected to our bodies and more intentional about the products we choose.
Wellness isn’t about chasing perfect balance. It’s about learning what supports you—and making thoughtful choices along the way.

Progessence Plus is not intended to replace medical care, prescribed hormone therapy, or advice from a qualified healthcare professional. Always follow the current product label and consult your healthcare professional with questions about whether a product containing progesterone is appropriate for you.
