Import into PsychonautWiki Journal
The PsychonautWiki Journal app includes Progesterone, but its built-in data can be thinner than ours. Importing this file adds a separate "Progesterone (Substance Search)" custom substance with our dose ranges, durations and tolerance, so you can log against whichever you prefer.
Ranges are harm-reduction guidance, not a prescription.
