natural progesterone cream with levo

[Applecore]

Does anybody take natural progesterone cream and how do you take it.  I took my levo at 7 and then put the progesterone cream on about 9:10.  Is that far enough away or should I take it at night.  What is your experience .   Brrrr is it cold in Maryland.     linda

I am 42. I was hyper T at 38 "thyroid storm" a 'I believe" out of touch endo sent me for RAI and took my Thyroid completely. Then I went into many aliments. I went hypo T and could not balance out. The endo never treated me appropriately and dismissed my aliments of "A brain anyrusm" Never thank goodness did I have one. Four years I was treated by a PA. he also never got it right. Just kept pushing pills on me until I left. I now found a regular MD who seems to be open to other things. He found I wasn't converting the T4 into T3 also to make things worse my body rejected the red dye in Synthroid. I was so sick. I feel much better on the Armour Thyr. but I can't seem to get over acid reflux. Its daily and real bad. It doesn't matter what I eat or drink. I always have it. My cycle just started getting weird and I go from hot to cold with in minutes. Gained 35 pounds and I am miserable. Moody and withdrawn. I really do have my get up and go I did. It is sad to me that I am entering my mid chapter in life and not able to enjoy anything.

The minute I used it it seemed to make me feel better.  Did your doctor mean estrogen or any hormone cream.  The is a natural progesterone.  It is not estrogen.  My doctor is pretty up on things and I will ask him on Tuesday when they are open.  I'm not taking it anymore until I find out.  How old are you I haven't read you stuff before I'm asking this question.  I am 68 and been through change of life a long time ago at 43.  linda

I read using a hormone cream in not safe for patients with thyroid problems. At least me current doc says no. Yeah Wisc is pretty chilly too.
