Hello everyone,
It's been a while since I posted, so I hope you are all doing well. I'm trying to recover from post-Covid ME/CFS which has catapulted me into accelerated perimeno so it's fun fun fun at the moment!
Anyway, I seem to have joined the ranks of women who can't take Utrogestan either orally or vaginally and I'm so disappointed! I am under the care of a fantastic meno specialist (the perimeno care in France is dismal) so I know she will suggest something else but I want to see what my options are before my appointment. I'm feeling very nervous of progesterone yet at the same time I love my Estréva (oestrogen gel) and am not giving it up. I'm going round and round in circles wondering what to do...
So, I'm 49 and still on Cerazette (I tolerate this ok) and 1 + 1/3 pump of oestrogen gel. My FAI is very low and I've been told I'm getting testosterone at my next appointment.
I obviously want a bio identical progesterone and from what I gather the only option is Cyclogest or Lutigest - is that right? No bio identical gels or creams yet? I read that some women use 50mg of Cyclogest every evening - has anyone else had a horrendous experience with Utrogestan but is ok on this option?
Many thanks for your help!
