For Amenorrhea "I am currently taking this medication for a missed cycle. I was told to take it at night due to the drowsiness it may cause. So far, I have not noticed much of a problem with that. I have been on the pill for 5 days, and the side effects are almost unbearable. I have breast tenderness, but also the muscles around my chest/back area are aching to the point of being painful. I called my doctor about this side effect and was told that the medication has not been known to cause achiness. After reading this website, I see it is very possible. I have had some dizziness, sweating, and irritability as well. Either way, the medication seems to be helping, but I really cannot wait to quit it!"

For Progesterone Insufficiency "I experienced a few mild side effects - mainly mild nausea and irritability. Well worth the improvement in my overall health."

For Perimenopausal Symptoms "Taking it at 100 mg. Didn't like the dizzy feeling. Started taking it at night, much better, but I feel it building up in my system over time. I wish I could take half or 3/4 as much, but it is not available in those doses. I have absorption issues, and the liquid form is great except I can't cut it in half. I do like what it does for my thinking, digestion, emotions, etc., but over time, irritability, heavy dreaming, pregnant-like feeling build up. I am a small woman, about 110 lbs, 5 feet, and wish smaller doses were available. A little bit goes a long way."
