Do you get any prog withdrawals on x3 days Furyan? I was offered it every other night as an option by my specialist but couldn’t hack the withdrawals x

Interesting question - I did on the very first three day cycle, horrendous shakiness, feeling spaced out, panicky and heart palpitations. I took it on the third day and obviously it subsided but it hasn’t happened since. Maybe my body has got used to expecting a progesterone boost every 3 days, who knows? I just hope I can continue like this as I’m tired of this minefield called HRT! There are other options for progesterone - mirena, although synthetic, apparently gives off a very low dose so might have fewer side effects (women report variable experiences). Worse case scenario is for me to go back to Evorel conti which, although I felt quite settled with it, I want to stick with body identical hormones as far as possible.

Interesting. Yes I had to have the mirena removed after trialling it for 6 months, it was terrible for me (as a prog intolerant) and I would never advocate it. I would be the same re body identical x

I had similar with Mirena- was in so much pain. I can just about tolerate the utrogestan for 12 days a month. Some months are worse than others symptom-wise . Oddly enough i faired much better on nortithisterone. They gave me huge doses of it to try and stop the awful non stop and increasingly heavy bleeding i had when the Mirena was in situ. I was ok on it.
