I was very regular with my periods for many years. 28 days, almost to the our, my period would start. Got C19 for the first time in January this year, missed my next period and the one after was a week late, so 9 weeks between periods.
Meanwhile I was anxious, achy, short tempered, sleeping badly. Sew GP at the end of April and started Utrogestan for 12 days per month. (Also daily spray of Lenzetto.) Period was due and I started bleeding within hours. A very, very heavy period but aches less, anxiety reduced, temper more even.
My sleep has been noticeably better on Utrogestan nights. Second month much the same but the period was more of usual levels not the ultra heavy bleeding of the first month of HRT.
Reviewed with GP, blood test shows estranged levels are great (spray been moved to bedtime).
Now on third month of Utrogestan but the biggest effect of it hasn’t happened - my sleep has been crap, I was really looking forward to a solid 8 hours but I’m back to sleeping for 2-3 hours at a stretch. Also my period hasn’t started. Tonight will be night 8 of Utrogestan, would have expected my period to be done for the month by now. I’m quite achy too.
Any advice or experience? Desperate for an improvement in sleep, not so bothered by the lack of Period!!
