Having problems

Hi
Not been on for a while as everything was ticking along nicely. I am on 3 pumps of estrogel and 100g utro but recently when on utro my night sweats are bad. I am beginning to get the morning sickness feeling back as well. I'm wondering do I need to up my estrogel or lower it. I cannot stand the nauseous feeling. I'm also on testosterone. The past 2 months I have had an awful break out of spots all over my chin so hormones don't seem to be under control. Any help would be much appreciated. Xx

Aw Keepgoing this isn't good news after such a great spell
I'm no expert but maybe the prog phase is lowering your oestrogen absorption? I wonder if you try increasing oestrogen the days leading up to, during and after using prog it'd balance out more and end the sweats ? I always know my oestrogen is lower as night sweats are the first thing to return xx

Keepgoing, it sounds like the Utrogestan is drowning out the positive effects of the oestrogen. Have you thought about lowering the Utrogestan dose to 100mg for 7 days each month? It is better and more effective when used vaginally too.

Hi Mary g I use it vaginally I might try the 7 days next month and if I still feel the same may need to up estrogel...thanks xx
Annie congratulations on your marriage hope you have many happy years together 🎉🎉🥂
Unfortunately my break up was not mutual and complicated but that's life I will get over him in time...right now I just want the hormones back on track. Was at the docs on Friday so she has decided to check all my bloods and levels so getting that done on Monday. The night sweats usually are a sign of low estrogen but the nausea for me usually indicates it's to high so I'm a bit confused 🤷♀️ lol xx
