Hi Losingtheplot,
I read your post with interest and I would like to share my experience of utrogestan in case it helps.
I was initially taking utrogestan vaginally at night before bed, however I was still struggling with side effects, chronic anxiety and strangely enough it did not sedate it affected my sleep. I started taking it orally at night, but was still having the same issues.
I have started using the utrogestan vaginally in the mornings, I insert it and then I rest for about 1 hour to make sure it's absorbed etc. I have found since doing this, my chronic anxiety is so much better.
I don't know if this helps or not xxx
