P cream

[Guest guest]

Hi, I am new to the group!

I was on progesterone cream for about a year and a half.....because a

NP found that my progesterone was very low. At first it worked great to

calm me down...but after awhile I had really bad headaches and breast

pain ect. I was then told to keep pilling it on! Then I joined a

thyroid forum and it was suggested to do a 24 hour saliva test. I did

and found out that I have VERY high cortisol and was also told that it

could be due to the P cream.

Has anyone else had this problem??

I did stop the cream and have been off now for about four weeks and

have noticed that I feel a little clearer.

Does anyone know how long it takes for the P to clear the system??

Also I have gained about 10 pounds this last month since going off P,

can anyone explain this?? I did just switched to armour too, so this

could also have something to do with it.

Thanks,

Kim
