Oestrogel and HUNGER

Recently started treatment for peri menopause. All au naturel.Oestrogel gel and Progestin tabs.

2 weeks on both - noted a difference in calmness and great sleep. Slept like a baby.
2 weeks on Oestrogel alone - feel highly strung (like I did pre treatment), sleeping super late at night and falling asleep in the day. Also my hunger!! Saying I am FAMISHED is putting it mildly. I'm so hungry it's ridiculous.

So oestrogel alone (BIG HUNGER)... oestrogel and progestin combined 'perfect'

Just found your post through searching for oestrogel and hunger online. Glad it's not just me experiencing it. I've been on oestrogel for a week and oh my gosh I am SO HUNGRY!! I'll be taking progestin for the second half of my cycle so I hope it balances then.
