Hello Mindfulmoomins
I just wanted to tell you that I also get horrible anxiety when on progesterone - have tried utrogestan and levonorgestrel and both had this effect, but not until a couple of months in, I think it takes that long to build up in your system and start causing problems. I also share your worries about whether the mood stuff is hormonal rather than 'just' depression as I've also suffered from this before, but the more I find out about menopause and HRT the more I'm convinced that, for me, it is down to hormones. Estrogen has definitely had a positive effect on my mood, now like you I have to find a solution to the progesterone problem...the best advice I can give you is find someone who really knows what they're talking about to advise you, cos it's mind-blowingly complicated! x
