Progesterone via Gaba

Want to better understand how progesterone, via GABA, can be very helpful in treating (and even curing) cases of depression e anxiety?

Simple:

Progesterone helps to increase the effectiveness of the GABA system in the brain, improving the functioning of different receptors for GABA (neurotransmitter) in both men and women. GABA is our “natural calmer”, improving focus and harmony.
