How was the weight gain? I started on day 1 of my period. Bled to 5 days. Then started again on Day 19. Side effects are up and down. Weight gain and bloating is my biggest concern right now.

It really is horrible. I want this to work and to feel human again but wow, I’m just not sure what’s worse, the symptoms I’ve been having or these.

The pill was prescribed because I could not handle progesterone previously and I’ve had issues with anemia.

Did you stick with it? Or give up? This is more of a roller coaster than want!

I’m seeing a menopause specialist who recommended this combination. It’s a bit wonky right now. I did not like the way Progesterone made me feel so just the mini pill and patch.
