Marchlove, the concensus seems to be that oestrogen is stimulating so your reaction is interesting. I can't help with the progesterone side of things, sorry. I guess that combo itself is a juggling act! I'm used to many, many years of "post-exertional malaise" fatigue (exertion taking many forms, physical and mental) so I hope we can all find the route we each need to suffer it as little as possible, reasonably taking age and circumstances into account. 🤞
