Slynd and sudden extreme anxiety

[SmallBlondeMum]

I'm 52. Went through prematuremenopause and was postmenopausal by 43.

I've been on HRT 9 yrs. I'm progesterone intolerant so its been incredibly difficult and in all honesty I've lost the last decade to menopause and managing side effects of HRT.

A menopause clinic prescribed me Slynd about a month ago.
I'm on 3mg of Elleste Solo and Testogel.

All was going well but from no where I am suddenly incredibly anxious. As in im struggling to breathe, function and look after my children.

Very unlike me and not something I've experienced before. Its like an extreme drop/change in my mood. I've never experienced anything like this.

I'm desperate for it not to be the Slynd as I've exhausted all progesterone options.

Anyone else found they experienced extreme anxiety whilst taking Slynd?
Will it improve or do I need to accept my HRT journey is over?

I have no experience of Slynd, but that extreme anxiety (I don't have problems breathing but find the idea of driving, for example, suddenly too overwhelming) is a symptom of low estrogen for me, not related to progesterone. It is sudden too, but I am in perimenopause with big fluctuations.

I have had issues with the merina and POP in the past, but this was low mood, depressive type issues.

Anxiety means low estrogen to me, but I'm sure this all varies person to person. Did you start all your current routine at the same time ?

No I've been on Elleste Solo a few years. Increased to 3mg about 6 months ago.
Testosterone for about 8 years.
