Help

Hi all, I am on .1 mg Estradiol cypionate per day (.7 per week) for almost a month with ElevateMD and .025 mg patch (transitioning off patch eventually) and 100 mg progesterone rectally. My E level has come up nicely to 89 on day 2 of patch and progesterone 4.5. I was feeling pretty decent but last week started having nausea and my body feels stiff and sore again, some depression and crying. I feel like I’m 80. I’m 56 and post menopausal for 10 years. Looks like I may need to go back to 200mg progesterone…

Is this just an adjustment period? Is it unbalanced levels? I was in bed most of the day Sunday feeling awful. What are your thoughts?

T is pending I’m sure it’s low as I’m just on cream and waiting on injections bec it was causing muscle and glute cramps…

Any thoughts or encouragement would be helpful. I’ve gone through hell with this journey.
