Felt great on 200mg but caused hormonal acne. Does the acne eventually go away?

So hold up, as a 42 YO woman are you saying that the PMDD I get the week before my period that has worsened as I age, could be a symptom of low progesterone in perimenopause?

You should talk about the side effects of using oral progesterone. Bloating, constipation and gained weight, how it slow motility and can cause dysbiosis.

I’m struggling because I’m so happy with a low dose of estrogen but I think the 100 mg progesterone is giving me headaches.

I am on 100 mg every night of bioidentical progesterone no oestrogen because I have physical anxiety since in my perimenopause. It helped a little bit but I still get those adrenaline rushes and I’m wondering can I increase the progesterone to 200 mg would that help? PS I am already six months on it xx

I have adenomyosis and lately I’ve been having a lot of horrible cramping. I haven’t had that in years and so do you think that I should update my progesterone from 100 mg to 200 mg? I don’t get hot flashes so do I need to even be on estradiol?

2 pumps estro gel and. 300 mg oral progest for first 14 days of cycle - helps with all symptoms but mid cycle bleeding and cramping for days after stopping progest each cycle , changing dose and routes has not helped

What are your thoughts on compounded cream progesterone? I’ve heard the body doesn’t absorb it. Thank you for all your advice!💓

This was very helpful for me. I found out after a hysterectomy that I had stage 4 endometriosis and adenomyosis, I didn't realize there could still be lesions. 😳

So I’m curious what they think about down low progesterone and then whether or not you’re talking cyclical or the last 12 days etc. For those of us that do not tolerate oral progesterone it causes me to suffocate from relaxing my airway.

Should I be cycling my progesterone or use continuously? I still have cycles.

Listen to this woman. Was on estrogen with no progesterone. Ended up with complete hyperplasia with atypia and a subsequent hysterectomy. Dr who prescribed was a quack.

I was put on 100 mgs during my leutal phase, really helps a lot with symptoms and insomnia. But menstrual bleeding has been insane enough to cause anemia again a year after an infusion. I didn’t take it last month and my symptoms were horrible but bleeding way better? Idk what to do bc I think I need the progesterone.

I’m on .05 estrogen patch and 300 mg oral progesterone…. Anything less than 300 mg will make me spot

200 mg made me sleep worse than at 100 mg. I had a lot of dizziness, very clumsy and I would have crazy jolts when I'd try to fall asleep. But I am still having adrenaline surges. I do not have a uterus and am currently on .05 patch
