Trufflecat, this is where I am now. As you saw from my other post, I'm an emotional mess too. I am one week off the Utro, but I take 200 for 10 days, and I can't wait to get back on it. I'm charting my moods, noting each day as overall good, bad (weepy or lazy), or anxious, even though I may have all of them in one day. I'm also noting hot flashes. During the Utro course, I get a nice stretch of normal, then get major hot flashes when I stop the utro. My moods are up and down every day on the estrogen only days. I can't figure it out. I don't think it's the withdrawal from utro that some have posted about, as I'm moody right up until I'm a few days into Utro again. When I cycled normally without hrt, my best days were always just before my period and midcycle was my worst time.
