Wanted to share a success story and ask a few questions - Progesterone helped me get rid of my inability to stay asleep for more than 5-5.5 hours and now feel rested upon waking with full 7-7.5 hours of uninterrupted sleep.
Used 4 days of 100mg oral dose to flush out any excess estrogen as per advice by some members of this forum and it worked really well. Big thanks! Now I have no issues with lower doses since switching to 5-10mgs for a week already using @haidut Progestene - anxiety and nervousness are not a problem. It is actually the opposite now - calmness and a lot less sexual thoughts which I find is a benefit for everyday life and work. Though on the lower doses I do dream of Sex which is something that almost never happened before.
Other benefits - I believe sharper and quicker thinking process. Judging by my chess game - used to play only longer games as my visualization skills were a bit slow yet somewhat deep, now they are a lot quicker and moved to a shorter games in duration as otherwise it gets boring waiting for the opponent to see the next move. Also - oily skin as if I am a teenager again. Dig it, even though I will need to remove more blackheads now.
Anyway - in short - I really love it. But should I be aware of something if I decide to use small doses of progesterone long term, everyday ? Can I mess something up ? From what I have researched it seems "safe", kinda.
Heard some people saying that it is good to cycle 2 weeks on , 2 weeks off to not let my liver get very good at removing the progesterone. Is there any truth to that ?
Any advice is welcome.
