Testosterone might help tinkerbellj - and I presume you've had your thyroid checked?

I am using 4 pumps of oestrogel, which is a high dose. And I haven't used any Utrogestan this month but my period still arrived this morning (accompanied by a drop in mood and some anxiety).

So obviously my own cycle is still alive and kicking, sadly. Only difference is, these last two months my cycle has suddenly increased to 30/31 days, when for the last few years it's been 25/26 days.

Hi hurdity I did try testosterone but I didnt feel the benefit and I think it made my moods worse?

Same thing happened to me this month gypsy. I noticed the bleed and just started my utro. Rang clinic they said possibly breakthru bleed I wss due to take the utro the next week so just brought it forward . I only take it every other month but how on earth was 4 pumps not enough??? And my period wasn't that heavy whwn it came so now I am concerned about build up .it never ends
