Just a little update before my question, my apologies if I should have posted this on my original thread...
Cytomel: I decided to further split up my cytomel doses, 6.25 every 1.5 hrs. Adrenaline symptoms viturally gone
Progest E: I decided to take a continuous dose rather than cycle the progesterone, 3 big drops 5x day. Felt great and slept like a baby every night until post menstruation.
Here's where my question lies... I had my period despite being on the progesterone, it was lighter than usual but still showed up. I was surprised since I didn't think I was going to have it this month. Also, like last month, I feel the absolute worst at the end of my period. Does post menstrual syndrome exist? I usually feel great right up until my period, especially with the progesterone, its after when things go bad. Not as bad as last month, but still had symptoms of sadness, pain, anxiety, low temperature and waking up to pee at night. Everything gets better from 1 week before ovulation right up until menstruation, then things fall apart again right after menstruation.
I am really trying to stay focused on correct diet. Calcium/Phosphorus ratio is good, carrot salad everyday, minimal starch (I feel better that way), around 100g protein daily,90% nutritional needs met on Cronometer (the only one I don't fulfill is iron). I am also trying to take aspirin after meals, although I am a bit worried it might be irritating my stomach, but it also might be excess estrogen making me feel 'sick'.
Can I assume things will generally improve as I continue to take progesterone? Is there maybe an adjustment to be made in the dosing schedule?
Thank you in advance
