Lisa's Question:  I have recently started taking 50mg of progesterone and bi est cream 50.50 it's been 3 weeks. Experiencing hot flash at night and seeing very little improvement in my sleep. Does it really matter where we apply the bi est cream, I was told inner highs, I feel I absorb it better in the inner arm, Also could the dosage be too low, I cannot tolerate more than 50mg of progesterone. These are compounded in pharmacy. Short Answer:  We recommend that our patients apply their cream to the inner thigh. In some situations, the back of the knee is fine, but most often the inner thigh is the best place. We do not recommend applying the cream to the upper arm or forearm, as this can skew blood testing results. PYHP 075 Full Transcript: Download PYHP 075 Transcript Dr. Maki: Hello, everyone.
