The smaller, the better.

Because of PCCA’s commitment to quality, we search the globe for the finest chemicals. In doing so, we have found that not all hormone powders are alike.

Pharmacists understand the importance of working with pharmacopoeial grade hormone powders that consistently meet potency standards, and PCCA’s Special Micronized Progesterone meets these high standards but also excels in an additional category: particle size. In drug delivery, particle size is very important regardless if it is transdermally,orally, buccally, vaginally or rectally, and PCCA’s Special Micronized Progesterone is 90% less than 5 microns.  PCCA’s R&D and Formulations teams have found ideal performance when used in concentrations up to 20% for most preparations (equivalent to 200 mg/Gm total hormone).

BENEFITS

• Consistently sourced from FDA-Registered and GMP-compliant facilities
• Tested in PCCA formulations in a range of concentrations
