Hi y’all,
I am caught up in a darkess that I believe is ”Menopause Anxiety”.
I’m female and 46 and have a history of hormonal insufficieny (repeated mc’s and 2 successful pregnancies by use of DHEA and progesterone).
Ob/gyn prescribed estrogen for my menopause symtoms (vaginal atrophy etc) but I never used it.
Instead I decided to give progesterone and pregnenolone creams another try, but with dismal results... My anxiety and depression is INCREASING......!
so now I’ve learned about the possible paradox that sometimes occur with allopregnenolone antagonizing GABA-A....? And since small doses seem to do this, I am contemplating going high, like 200-300mg transdermal progesterone per day.... Looks like a lot of ladies my age are dosing like this... with better results....
Anyone that can offer some experience/advice? Please?
