Seidigestan / Utrogestan. OTC Progesterone contains Titanium Dioxide
-
I've started using this out of sheer desperation, as my Progest-E package was not let through at customs (because it was marked as cosmetics) even with DHL Express.
So this stuff Seidigestan (the new name for Utrogestan) is like high-dose bio-identical progesterone. In fact, for about the same price it has 4 times the amount of a progest-E bottle. availble over the counter here. It is effective, although I think due to the lack of E not as effective as Progest-E despite the higher dose.
BUT FUCK it's suspended in sunflower oil and worst of all titanium dioxide.
What are my options? I need to use progesterone, micronized powders are not OTC, and I don't think I can get Progest-E in in any way...
Would topical use limit the damage of the titanium? It would reduce the absorbed dose though. I don't believe i could extract the titanium somehow. What a shame. And to think it's literally just to make the liquid look WHITE, They even banned titanium dioxide in food but not in medicine ( WHICH IS FOR SICK PEOPLE). stupid world.

@CO3 https://www.onasnatural.de/products/luna-oil-5 German Progest E. Crazy that you can get pharmaceuticals, but not supplements. They ship from Czech Republic according to the website.

Anyone ever use this?

@CO3 yes I used Onas progesterone oil and it's good. The problem with it is that is almost always out of stock and it has a huge amount of vitamin E in it.
Regarding the Seidigestan/Utrogestan, you can avoid the titanium dioxide easily, as it is only in the capsule shell, just put a hole in the capsule and use the contents. It still leaves the issue with soy or peanut oil, but its a tiny amlunt, the benefits outweigh the downside.

@happycat Great idea bro

wrong.
the substance is white. titanium dioxide is a whitener.there is no other whitening agent and the shell is simply gelatin (here at least).
also why it tastes like sunscreen lol. i boight them hoping the titanium was used like that but should have known it wasn't since gelatin capsules are already shiny and easy to swallow.

@alfredoolivas
Each capsule contains 100mg progesterone. The other ingredients are sunflower oil and soybean lecithin (E322). The other ingredients in the capsule shell are gelatin (E441), glycerol (E442), titanium dioxide (E171) and purified water. -
@happycat So you're bringing up a bad translation or a misinformed description as proof against my assessment, which is in turn based on physical reality.
Please tell me, how do they make the liquid inside white? Use your brain, man.
