The above link will take you to earlier discussions about Progesterone Cream....perhaps you will find something that will help you.

Are you optimally treated for your thyroid ?

I used Wellsprings Serenity for 5 years after coming off HRT, 5 years on that, and I found it did help and didn't interfere with my uptake of Thyroxine.

Hi Louv,

When do you apply the cream to avoid thyroid uptake interference?

I just applied the cream as per instructions, think it was a pea size blob morning and night. At the time I used to take my thyroxine in the morning but now I take it at night. Because it is applied to the skin rather than taken in tablet form I don't think it interferes with thyroxine uptake, but I can only speak for myself. Many will say the dose isn't high enough to make any difference to how you feel, but I certainly felt better using the cream, it seemed to keep me calm and I was ready to start using it again after my 6 days a month off it! Hope you get on ok with it.

Hi Michelle,I am really troubled with the menopause just now,I have never felt so ill as I did with this,the doctor gave me HRT 2 weeks ago,as I was at the end of my tether I was only sleeping for 2 hours a night for 2 weeks and had migraine headaches that I have had daily for a year and a half all felt nauseated for the same amount of time, I had got sleeping tablets for a week to help but doctor wouldnt give them long term,and before I started HRT I wanted to try a herbal supplement I had heard really good things about,and its been a god send,It has improved my mood as before I would cry at the drop of a hat,I can now sleep which I am so pleased about,it hasn't helped the headaches yet,but have only been taking them for 9 days,they are called Menapol and they are from Simply supplements and are very reasonable priced,read the reviews on them,they are so good
