received my natural progesterone cream today, ordered online as it has to be imported from the U.S. via this company (for those reading who are in the U.K.)

it only took about 5 days from ordering which impressed me (as they warned it might take longer).
What Dr. Judy said about natural progesterone cream seemed to fit with my needs and symptoms.
I thought I might start using it tonight and report any changes on this thread (for the benefit of others).
Being in perimenopause, with quite serious hypothyroidism and other symptoms of oestrogen-dominance, I am so sick of it all that I really want to fight back in this New Year - for me, and for my long-suffering husband, kids, and my worried elderly mom.

my cycle is 21 days and there is sporadic brown discharge, which can go on for up to the 2 weeks after normal blood flow finishes, which can be thick and stretchy at some points, (which seems to indicate I am still ovulating), which is something I would like to see eradicated.
On this website it does seem to show that old blood is not passed when there is oestrogen dominance, which would explain that.
(Sorry, I am phrasing it badly, please investigate the links).
But it's not exactly conducive to a physical love life when that possibility is there.

As I said, I am fighting back.
I'm not old and I'm not going to give up.
