Endometriosis, luteal phase defect, chronic anxiety, night sweats

by Melissa
(Canada)

Hi there,

I have suffered from chronic general anxiety disorder since 17. I am now 33, on 62.5mg of Paxil CR. I was diagnosed with endometriosis 4 years ago, have a luteal phase defect (I ovulate around day 19 and get my period 7 days later), have night sweats and fibrocystic breasts. I currently take 5000mgs of Vitamin D per day.

How much progesterone should I start to take a day?
Any supplements?

Thanks so much!
