Low oestrogen/mini pill/ stuck with what to do next

Have been feeling shattered for months now-from being a frequent exerciser and fit person virtually overnight became exhausted. Had several routine blood tests which revealed low oestrogen levels (typical of post menopausal levels) but am not in early menopause following a scan and also have low FSH levels. Problem is what to do now. GP doesnt know why levels are low but doesn't want to give HRT as nt menopausal. However as I am approaching forty he recommended swapping my current combi pill to a progesterone only mini pill. My understanding us that this means no oestrogen at all in these pills so surely this will not help me? Also have lots of other symptoms which fit in with low oestrogen. Should I seek a second opinion/ push a little harder at doctors? Am fed up now of feeling so tired. Anyone else experienced this and any views n this mini pill?
