Hormone replacement therapy
I’ve been off estrogen patch .1 and progesterone 200mg for 3 weeks now (after being on for 3 months). In that three weeks I’ve had nothing but extreme anxiety. Is this withdrawal from coming off cold turkey? Dr recommend just getting off because of a patch brand changed that seemed to give me anxiety. Now Dr recommend I try a lower dose .5 patch and 100 progesterone. Should I try progesterone first and then add in the patch or just ride this out until my body adjusts? I went off because my symptoms were more vaginal and use the cream for that now. I had no other peri symptoms but that. I never had this anxiety before! I just don’t want to start back up and go through this whirlwind again.
