How is is going so far? Do you feel enthusiastic? Frustrated?

The black cohosh seems (mostly) to be doing its job. I am still having the odd hot flash. I'm noticing, though, that my digestion is not what it was before and one of the side effects of this herbal, is weight gain. Sigh.
Brain fog is still an issue.0 -
Ugh!
Actually, okay.
It's been months now since my last period. My FSH is 65. So I think it's probably gone for good. (It had been 20s and 30s the last few years).
Hot flashes finally hit. And night sweats ramped up.
Brain fog and mood are the worst now. I met, again, with my OBGYN (a woman in her 70s), who AGAIN recommended estrogen and progesterone. I'd been doing progesterone, and *some* estriol. (She's recommended bio-identical estradiol).
I discussed it with hubs and we agreed I would do it.
I did quite a bit of research, and feel pretty comfortable.
So, I started estradiol with the progesterone. Here's hoping my concentration and mood improve (and the sweats).1 -
