Hi.
Has anyone experienced extreme dizziness due to hormone changes.
I began using progesterone 10 consecutive days after being oestrogel only for 7 months. I decreased oestrogel dose at the same time.
I had what i thought was a progesterone intolerance reaction. Very heavy period, almost suicidal, massive swollen breasts, libido through the roof, exhausted, felt like i had a flu virus.
My hormone consultant told me to hold off on progesterone and get back to balance with previous oestrogen dose, then restart a 10 day utrogestan regime with continued high dose oestrogel.
All this makes sense to me, however i have stayed away from utrogestan for a good 2 weeks now. My sleep is still disturbed and libido still more than it used to be and still dizzy for most of the day.
I am taking gp prescribed meds for the vertigo symptoms, and my gp.suspects i have menieres. In other words my reaction to progesterone may not be as extreme as i think, and i may have been unlucky enough to experience a virus (which triggered menieres and vertigo) at the same time as strong reaction to progesterone.
So back to my question - anyone on this forum experienced the ongoing vertigo symptoms i have described as a side effect of hormones being out of balance?
Huge thanks
