progesterone use and thyroid

[Guest guest]

I've been having some amount of success using progesterone cream... will be starting my 4th round of it tomorrow. I also have thyroid disease and I'm wondering if as my thyroid becomes more optimally treated with Armour, will I need less progesterone? Will that help my estrogen dominance at all? Or are these separate issues.

Hypothyroidism seems to cause estrogen to go high in most people. It

causes increased inflammation, and many changes in the body that

require more estrogen to be made to help protect the cells of the

damage that is happening to them. Also, hypothyroidism alters the

menstrual cycle causing longer estrogen cycles and shorter

progesterone cycles. So, getting thyroid optimized should correct

it. There is lots of evidence from patients that get thyroid

replacement during menopause, that ssuddenly have their terrible

menopauses go away. Getting thyroid optiminzed should also increase

progesterone production to normal or close to it.

I cannot use estrogen or progesterone anymore since going on

thyroid. They both bother me. My doctor at the time tried to put me

on estradiol because it was low even though my estrone was off the

charts. I did try it about twice, thinking to see if it was a great

as he made it out. Both times, my immune system seemed to go down

and I got sick along with not feeling right. With progesterone, I

feel really terrible and won't sleep worth a darn.
