progesterone intolerance - perimenopause

[Guest guest]

Can anyone fill me in or direct me to a good source(s) for info on

progesterone supplements and how they affect the adrenals etc etc? I

have been prescribed high doses of natural progesterone for

perimenopause and it makes me feel awful - sluggish, constipated, cant

sleep, immunosuppressed (bad sinus congestion). I have heard that

progesterone can raise cortisol levels - too high?

Any light shed on this connection would be helpful. Thank you.
