Information
on Using Oasis Serene for Endometriosis
Endometriosis is a painful,
devastating disease in which small islets
of endometrial tissue
somehow migrate into the muscular wall of
the uterus, out along the
fallopian tubes and even to the surface of the ovaries and the pelvic contents,
including the nearby colon. Being endometrial tissue, they respond to the
monthly surges of estrogen and progesterone
exactly like the endometrium within the
uterus, i.e. they swell with blood during the month and then bleed at menses
time. This causes mild to severe pain starting before menstruation and not
subsiding until after menstruation. The cause of this disorder is presently
unknown.
Natural
(bioidentical) progesterone offers
a benign alternative to usual medical treatment.
Endometriosis is usually treated with low dose synthetic estrogen and high
dose synthetic progestins: long-acting intra-muscular injections of synthetic
progestins (to suppress menses); analgesics for pain (including narcotics);
and surgical treatment with laser or resection of all visible endometrial
lesions. The surgery is sometimes ineffective,
as it is difficult to distinguish some
of the endometrial tissue form healthy tissue.
Many women have had significant
success with Oasis Serene as it may prevent
swelling and bleeding of endometrial tissue from days 6 through 26 of the
menstrual cycle.
Where
to apply:
Apply with clean hands to clean skin. Do not use on skin where lotion, powder or perfume has been applied. We suggest that you purchase a plastic measuring spoon to use exclusively with your Oasis Serene Product. After each use wash with warm water and dry with clean towel. All measuring should be at a level dosage.
Apply to Neck, Hands, Breasts, Chest, Inner Arms, Inner Legs and Feet until absorbed. Progesterone is best absorbed on thin skin where blood vessels are visible. It
absorbs into the skin to the fatty layer then it is transferred into the
bloodstream.
Remember to rotate sites when applying Oasis Serene (If you apply to your
chest in the morning, apply to your feet in the evening, etc.). This is very important so that any one particular area of skin does not become sensitive to the product.
We do not recommend applying Oasis Serene to the face.
When to apply and how much to apply:
It is recommended that you use Oasis Serene from days 6-26 of your cycle to
alleviate your symptoms.
. Day 1 is the first day bleeding. On day 6, begin using ½ teaspoon
TWICE A DAY, and use through day 26, once in the morning and once in the
afternoon. (For an irregular cycle, use on
days 6-26 and you should begin to have a regular
cycle-this could take from 3-6 months).
. Oasis Serene begins to work
20 minutes after application and lasts in the
body for 8 hours; thus TWICE A DAY applications are required!
. You may increase the dosage by adding ½ teaspoon
in the middle of the day if your PMS symptoms
get worse the week before your period. Discontinue
use of Oasis Serene on day 26 of your cycle to allow your body to have a
period.
. If you begin to bleed before
day 26 of your cycle, stop the Oasis Serene
and start the cycle all over again. You should get regulated within 3-6 months.
. It is sometimes impossible
to use Oasis Serene with precision as you go
through menopause because your body is trying to stop your period altogether.
Continue to use Oasis Serene with as much precision as is possible until
your period subsides.
. If you have cramps with
bleeding, you can apply the Oasis Serene directly
to the cramping area for immediate relief. After a couple of months on the
Oasis Serene, your cramps should subside!
. If you have uterine fibroids,
ovarian cysts or fibrocystic breasts, separate
recommendations are available. See our Usage Information page.
Important
information :
. Oasis Serene is not suggested
for birth control. It can suppress ovulation
if used prior to ovulation time. It can enhance conception if used starting
on the first day of ovulation.
. If you are using the birth
control pill, it is recommended that you use
Oasis Serene 7 days prior to your period. You may get some relief of your
endometriosis. However, women who are not on
the pill obtain the best results.
. Although
there have been
no reports of significant side effects or health
problems associated with natural (bioidentical) progesterone, we encourage
you to find a
trusted health care provider to work with you
as you use Oasis Serene.
. There have been reports
of incidental spotting, which may be associated
with progesterone use: however, this is usually temporary. A physician should
always check any persistent spotting or breakthrough bleeding. Because some
PMS and Menopausal symptoms may indicate other conditions, please be sure
to consult a health care provider if you ever
experience headaches or progressive
symptoms.
. Natural
(bioidentical) progesterone cream
can potentially INCREASE THYROID ACTIVITY. If
you are taking thyroid supplements, you
should consult your health care provider
and consider lowering the amount of thyroid
supplementation you use.
. DOSAGE MAY VARY PER INDIVIDUAL.
A woman typically produces 20 to 40 mg of progesterone
per day in her ovaries during the luteal phase
of her cycle. During
pregnancy, the production of progesterone is taken over by the placenta.
A woman in her third trimester of pregnancy
produces up to 400 mg of progesterone
per day.
. For vaginal dryness, we suggest using our O2-Zap and or Full-Spectrum 8 Optimum E capsules applied in and to the vaginal area. When using O2-Zap it is recommended to mix 1/2 teaspoon with 1/4 teaspoon of cold-pressed organic olive oil. O2-Zap will create a warming sensation.
. For migraines, headaches
or night sweats, you may use a dab of cream
every 15 minutes for an hour. Rub behind the
ears.
IF YOU HAVE SEVERE ENDOMETRIOSIS SYMPTOMS WE RECOMMEND THAT YOU START OUT
WITH OASIS SERENE PLUS FOR THE FIRST 3 MONTHS.
