Hi all,
I too am peri, 49.
Started HRT 18 months ago and gone through several dosages/ types.
I found some of the progesterone tricky norethesterone -🤢, utrogestan was even worse, totally nuts🤯, stopped after 5 days.......
Patches and pills at all different doses frankly it all drove me mad. It all got sooo complicated.
My worst symptom that refused to stop we're the night sweats ergo insomnia, appalling sleep, head fog. My life long love affair with anxiety/depression got a lot worse ......
I was starting a regime, symptoms would ease for a few days and come back again.
So- I went back to basics, back on Femeston 1mg ( kind progesterone) then added a 100mcg patch.
Finally , it seems things are looking up, not ‘cured' but certainly better.
I suppose my point is keep it as simple as possible and try a few different combo's as we are all so very different, a set regime that is supposed to be amazing , may work for some, but be a disaster for others.
