Understanding Oophorectomy
Unilateral oophorectomy (also called an ovariectomy) is the surgical removal of an ovary. If one ovary is removed, a woman may continue to menstruate and have children. If both ovaries are removed, a procedure called a bilateral oophorectomy, menstruation stops and a woman loses the ability to have children.
Subsequent research has established that sexual function declines following oophorectomy (surgical removal of the ovaries). Additional research has established that administration of testosterone reversed the decline in sexuality as a result of oophorectomy.
Evaluate your symptoms with the online Progesterone Deficiency Symptoms assessment quiz.
This free booklet explains oopherectomy and more conditions that rely on adequate progesterone production. These are summarized in the Progesterone booklet displayed opposite.

Hi Trish
Well I finally have some good news for you. The replacement that you sent arrived today. Total travel time was 14 days... I just did one last check on the original order and the tracking still shows it in Vancouver, so its likely fallen under a bench or God knows what . At any rate I was pleasantly suprised to see that your shipping practice of lisiting it as a gift of body lotion enabled it to arrive without any duty etc.
I will be placing another order shortly and hopefully your tracking of the original order has a bit of luck and as we discussed, if it does eventually make its way here, I will let you know and make arrangements for payment. You can expect me to be an ongoing customer for years to come. Once again, thanks for the great customer service.
Best Regards

There are no words to express our gratitude to you and the wonderful Pro-Feme®. After two heartbreaking miscarriages the divine Miss Lola is a true gift to us. After 2 years of specialist appointments, blood tests and ultrasounds conventional medicine could not detect the cause of my problem. Within months my menstrual problems virtually disappeared and I no longer dreaded, with fear, my vile PMT and heavy bleeding. After a couple of months I fell pregnant and although I was confident the same pattern developed: spotting at 5 weeks. It was at this point that you advised to increase the dose. THANKYOU! There is little doubt that without doing this I wouldn't have my precious girl today... if I said thank you, thank you, till infinity it wouldn't be enough.
