Title: Progesterone
Post by: discogirl on June 18, 2022, 06:13:58 PM
Hi all,

I'm sorry to post again but this post meno business has got me beat!!!

Ive just started HRT, I was taking the progesterone every night since last Saturday, and I am on estradiol patches.

Can I ask with progesterone it states that one of the side effects (on the NHS website are depression/anxiety, well I already have severe anxiety, can I presume these side effects do improve over time?

And can I just check, I am correct in thinking that progesterone, does help with sleep? I mean theres no evidence that it actually causes insomnia or makes it worse or anything?

thanks xx
