The bottom line No known interaction

We found no known interaction between Peanut Oil and Progesterone in our sources. Absence of a documented interaction is not the same as proven safety, and does not guarantee one does not exist. Do not start, stop, or change a medication or supplement based on this page; confirm with your pharmacist or doctor first.

Peanut Oil and Progesterone

We checked these two against our interaction database. Here is what we found.

No Known Interaction Found

We did not find a documented interaction between Progesterone and Peanut Oil in our sources. This does not guarantee that the combination is completely free of risk — there is often limited research on supplements and herbal products, especially around drug interactions.

Worth understanding: our licensed dataset holds no drug-interaction record for Peanut Oil at all — not against Progesterone, and not against any other medication we track. This verdict therefore rests on the absence of any recorded data, not on research that looked at this combination and found nothing. We cannot rule an interaction out.

If you decide to take both, the practical routine is simple: add one new thing at a time and note the date you started it. If the combination is going to disagree with you, it usually shows in the first days to a couple of weeks — and a start date turns “I’ve been feeling off” into something a pharmacist can actually work with. Do not stop a prescribed medicine on your own.

Always talk with your pharmacist or doctor before making changes to your medications or supplements, particularly if you take several medications or have an ongoing health condition.

Peanut Oil safety at a glance

Peanut Oil overall Use caution Generally safe as a food, but it can trigger reactions in people with peanut allergy.

Safety guidance is general; always confirm with your pharmacist or doctor for your situation.

What to actually watch for

What Peanut Oil Itself Has Been Linked To

This is not an interaction — nothing below involves Progesterone. It is the side-effect record for Peanut Oil on its own, from the licensed Natural Medicines monograph. If something new turns up after you add Peanut Oil, this list is the first place to look. One entry is worth acting on rather than waiting out — marked below.

  • A severe allergic reaction / An allergic reaction Worth acting on Additional detail

    “Peanut oil can cause a severe allergic reaction in individuals allergic to the Fabaceae family. Members of this family include peanuts and soybeans. Peanut allergy is the number one cause of fatal food-induced anaphylaxis with hypersensitivity in 6% to 8% of children and 1% of adults. Various peanut protein allergens have been identified.”

Everything above comes from the Natural Medicines adverse-effect record for Peanut Oil — expand a row for the licensed statement it rests on. We read the ADVERSE REACTIONS section of Progesterone’s FDA label too, and the two lists don’t meaningfully overlap — which is why no Progesterone column appears here.

See Every Supplement That Interacts With Progesterone

This page covers Peanut Oil only. If you take other supplements — a multivitamin, a sleep aid, something for joints — the Progesterone page lists 126 supplements it has a documented interaction with, worst first, each one explained.

The most serious there right now: Grapefruit (major), St. John's Wort (major), Acacia Rigidula (moderate), Adrafinil (moderate) and African Wild Potato (moderate).

By severity: 2 major · 91 moderate · 33 minor.

From our pharmacist’s overview on the Progesterone page

“Many people take progesterone (Milprosa) to support a pregnancy during fertility treatment or as part of hormone therapy, which is exactly when St. John's wort for mood or a morning glass of grapefruit juice can feel harmless.”

About Peanut Oil

What is Peanut Oil?

  • Cooking and frying
  • Skin moisturizing and massage
  • Carrier oil for other ingredients
  • Earwax softening (folk use)
  • Dry or chapped skin

Peanut oil is a food-grade oil pressed from peanuts, used mainly for cooking and as a skin or massage oil. It is generally considered safe as a food, but people with peanut allergy should be cautious, especially with crude (less-refined) oils, and there is little strong evidence for medicinal benefits.

Arachis hypogaea · Fabaceae · Oil pressed from the seeds (peanuts) · Cooking oil, topical/massage oil, ingredient in skin and hair products, carrier oil, some injectable medication formulations

An interaction check asks whether these two react with each other — it does not ask whether Peanut Oil is a good idea for someone in your situation. Here is what our Peanut Oil record says about it on its own.

Peanut Oil: dosing

There is no established medicinal dose for peanut oil. As a cooking oil, it is used in normal culinary amounts, like any other vegetable oil.If you are using a product that contains peanut oil for skin care or another purpose, follow the directions on the label.

From our Peanut Oil monograph — the full record covers uses, side effects and every documented interaction.

Crinone vaginal gel is used as part of Assisted Reproductive Technology (ART) for progesterone supplementation or replacement, and Crinone 4% is also indicated for secondary amenorrhea. Vaginal inserts — including Endometrin and other progesterone vaginal insert products — are used to support embryo implantation and early pregnancy as part of an ART treatment program for infertile women.
