I’ve been on 1 pump Estrogel and 100mg progesterone since April and will be seeing my doc again soon. For the last six weeks I’ve been having more mood swings and just started a full on period after six months. What adjustments should I make for the mood swings, periods, pms symptoms, sore boobs, evening out my moods, swinging energy levels? My hot flashes have all but disappeared and I’m still sleeping through the night, for the most part. But I just don’t feel as good as the first couple of months.
My doctor told me not to increase the progesterone without increasing the estrogen, for what it’s worth. I was at 200 progesterone, and I was supposed to do two pumps of estrogen, but only did one because I couldn’t tolerate two. So now I am on 100 progesterone. It’s working okay, but there was a period of adjustment where I had more night sweats/brain fog before it leveled out.
