No period

by Lindsay
(Uk)

This is a follow up to a comment I sent yesterday, which I may have mentioned before but don't seem to have had a reply, sorry if you are inundated.

I use the progesterone cream after ovulation and as my post says yesterday I'm struggling with estrogen dominance but also I have found that my period does not come unless I stop the cream, then it arrives in about 3 days. Is it ok to stop the cream a few days before my period is due or should I wait it out? I have waited up to a week late before with no bleed.

Many thanks.

Hi Wray, thanks for your reply, I can't seem to find my original post and your reply - I also don't recall an email saying it was accepted. Is there any chance you could re post it and your reply? Many thanks.

Hi Wray, apologies for the last comment, I have now found your reply thankyou so no need to repost. I have found by increasing to approx 2.5-3 teaspoons a day the symptoms are better. Could you also answer the above question regarding periods? Should I stop the cream when I know that I am due and suffer the return of symptoms? should I gradually reduce the amount of cream? Or just wait until my period arrives?

I could try continuous use for 3 months, but when and how would I stop the cream? Would I have to reduce the amount I use slowly?

Sorry for all the questions.
