A természetes progeszteron kutatása 1976-ra datálható, melyet egy norvég származású amerikai orvos, nevezetesen Dr. Lee, MD kezdeményezett.

Dr. Lee-nek és a mögötte álló nemzetközi orvos-csoportnak köszönhetően a következő tudományos tanulmányok, állati és klinikai kísérletek igazolják a természetes progeszteron hatékonyságát:
