Aug. 21st, 2017 08:43 pmQuestion for transfolk on progesterone.
I've come into a supply of progesterone pills, and would like to start on them. That said, I know progesterone is the hormone that makes women irritable before their periods, and most of the folks I know who have taken it daily were....not pleasant to be around 24/7.
Any advice on possibly cycling it, or effects of using it along side estradiol pills and making sure I don't turn into That Person? I'd ask my doctor but she will only monitor levels and not prescribe them.
Current doses: 6mg estradiol, 400mg spironolactone a day.
