Hi all! Hope you're not suffering too badly and are having a good day ;D xx

Please can I ask a question? Has anyone used a progesterone cream bought from the net? My peri symptoms have been palpitations/racing heart, low mood and anxiety intermittently, flatness, tiredness, hot face/ears and just generally feeling fluey and 'unwell' (can't put my finger on it sometimes!) My periods are still pretty regular... I'm 47 xx

I tried Evorel Sequi patches last November/December time. Initially, I thought they were helping.... the oestrogen patch didn't do much, but I think the progesterone patch helped a tiny bit. Then 2 months in it all came roaring back and my mood plummeted. Came off the patches then felt a bit better. It scared me to death. I'm just so disapointed and upset it didn't work ๐Ÿ™

I'm on Sertraline (small dose), magnesium, fish oil, vitamin D and Menopace.

Sorry this is long winded, but I was going to try some progesterone cream. My female docs haven't really been helpful and said there is nothing else I could try as there is a shortage of other choices and because I have suffered with anxiety and depression in the past, it probably isn't perimenopause as the patches would have helped.

About 3 years ago this peri started I think... before then I was really good for years xxx

Does anybody have any experience with progesterone cream etc?

Thank you xxx
