i went to a local nurse practioner in my town and she is against hormones but put me on a low dose of menest after about i amonth i felt almost normal but still no sex drive or energy so i had an app with dr who checks blood hormones and i was low on everything so she switced me to estratest but after a week heartrate went up(dont know if it was the estratest or antibotic i was on) but she switchedme to estradiol and also put me on prometrium a progestaron and a compounded hormone creme,i had told my pshy about no sex drive so he told me to go off the prozac as im on the wellbutrin but since cutting back to one or being on estradiol the eye and face pain...which u know i had it before so im thinking anxiety..i have lost 15 pounds with nutrisystem and doing much better i think i will go back to 20 mg prozac for ahile and see if pain goes away....i still dont have much energy or sex drive but it takes time to get hormones right again

Hazy..........why did your doctor take you off the hormone after only three weeks if it was helping you so much? Have you talked to him about the eye and face pain returning? Did you discuss cutting your Prozac dose in half with him before you did it?
You need to talk with him again Hazy, as he is the only one who can answer these questions.
I hope you're doing OK otherwise.
Peace
