Hi

I don't know if this has been suggested to you but could you try cyclogest progesterone?  It's still a body identical form and it's used in IVF.  My sister is having IVF and is on something like 3 x 400mg per day and doesn't get any side effects from it because it's an anal pessary.  I know there's some women that get on with it ok even though they can't tolerate utrogestan.  Could be worth asking your dr?  I also don't know if there would be any bladder issues with using it anally.

I'm very sorry you are going through this :-(

Thanks. Yes I’ve heard of cyclogest. My main problem now is waiting to speak to menopause nurse about what to do with HRT, now that two fibroids have been found and whether it’s causing my bladder issues. 5cm one sounds pretty big to me. Ugh 😩 I read that both oestrogen and progesterone contribute to fibroid growth.
