An update of my hell.
So I swapped from the prog cream to the troche. The cream never worked for me, I felt constantly woozy.
The troche. Same story - so higher doses of prog cause me intense nausea and wooziness. I conclude this is side affect. But too much to bear.
So I've found a dose of troche that doesn't give me the side affects. 6.25mg. Woo hoo.
I've now been on that 6 nights. I instantly feel it when it's absopted. It knocks me out. That's no problem at night. But omg...i totally believe In the stimulation of estrogen at low doses. Geezo... I'm in hell.
So I'm at my absolute worst. Sick, motion sickness, extreme anxiety and horrible horrible ear inflammation. These are my worst symptoms of high estrogen. So it is clearly antagonising. The ear thing I had right at the beginning of my peri symptoms and its awful. Not really had it since. I think high estrogen inflames the eustachian tubes. I'm trying a decongestant today.
So... I plan to ride this out. Nuts, right??? But I get side affects at higher doses.
Also, the prog is working for my mood, pmt and migraines. I need to get past this estrogen stimulation.
I am in hell.
Any support appreciated. I will get there 😁
