Hi all,
I started HRT a year ago. Started on 2 pumps gel and utrogestan on days 15-26, added testogel shortly after. I use progesterone vaginally in case that’s causing any mood symptoms. Main symptom mood swings. After 3 months I upped gel to 3 pumps but still struggling with mood swings. I can sulk for days and I don’t recognise myself sometimes- I hate it but can’t seem to snap out of them. All other symptoms (increased anxiety was my only other one really) have gone. Energy and sleep fine but I eat well and train. However, my mood swings weren’t getting better so switched to evorel 75 as thought maybe I was inconsistent with gel absorption (usually in a rush) I’ve found the patches have helped somewhat and I love the convenience of them but my mood sings are still an issue. Not sure if I should up to 100 or give it a few more months- I have been on 75 for a month. I’m almost 46 and it’s really getting me down as it’s affecting my relationship. Any advice greatly received.
