Desperate Measures
« on: March 31, 2022, 03:03:56 PM »

I have been unable to tolerate the high doses of estrogen I need for my symptoms, and have been unable to find a progesterone yet that I can tolerate, due to previous PMDD. Even though I am post meno. I wouldn’t usually consider this but I am desperate so has anybody had any success with bio-identical hormones via a clinic such as Marion Gluck. I know they are not recommended but I literally don’t know what to do. The Newson Clinic don’t know what to do with me, and neither does my gp but my meno symptoms are intolerable.

MayB your oestrogen is too high already?  Some have seen Marion Gluck, if you put her name into the search box you may find the threads.  Let us know.

Honestly I just don’t know any more. It wasn’t high when it was last checked. And I definitely have a return of symptoms since lowering it. I’m boiling hot all the time.
Yes, I did a search and found some references but can’t see anyone that it’s worked for at the mo. Will keep looking. xx
