Hurdity, thanks for your reply. I live in Asia and can buy these drugs without a prescription. My gyno supports what i am doing, but he knows very little about this regime, which is the result of my 'trial and error.' If i took more progesterone, or took it for longer, i would become unable to function, which surely defeats the purpose of being on HRT. As long as my lining is thin and my quality of life is good,
he doesn't object. He is more concerned about my smoking, as i tried everything to quit but failed. Luckily i exercise every day and have a very healthy, mainly vegetarian diet, my life is almost stress-free, my blood pressure low.
I had a pretty hectic summer, travelling through many time zones, sleeping too little due to jetlag and a more intense social and sexual life than usual. I felt good and energetic despite the lack of sleep and experience no hot flushes. As soon as i returned home from this 3 month-long holiday, the hot flushes, restlessness, brain fog, fatigue started. I will add one more estrogel pump a day and see if it helps. I too believe that my estrogen levels must have dropped
